Side by side 2012 sp1 to 2012 R2

Question
-
Hello
I want to install SCCM 2012 R2 with SP1 on a new Computer with Windows 2012 R2 . My current configuration is SCCM 2012 Sp2(5.00.8239.1000).
How to do that? Should I remove current version, or install new version then push new SC client software to clients and then uninstall old Server?
I use only Endpoint and windows updates so I don’t have much to copy or save.
If there is step by step guide please let me Know. Or tell me what the steps are…
Thank you

Why are you installing from scratch? If you have ConfigMgr 2012 SP2, then getting to R2 should be simple (as long as you are licensed for it). . .see here:

If you are truly trying to setup a new environment, then setup the new site/site server, configure it, deploy clients, and then uninstall the old site.

The easiest route would be to install your new site with a new site code and redirect your client on the new server.
Uninstall the "old" site once every client are migrated.

As Benoit and Xing Guo,
The best approach is,
1. Install the new site with new site code with latest version SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 CU2.

Hi,
You could use the migration wizard but you'd need to upgrade the current site to R2.

Why? Because it is Installed on Windows 2008 r2. And I have some problems with WMI…
