    hello all, hope you are well...

    so like many others out there I am finally starting the process to migrate our SCCM.

    Our Environment ( All server OS are Windows 2008 r2 unless stated)

    • 1 x SCCM server
    • 1 x SQL server
    • 4 x DP ( 2 of which a PXE boot )
    • 6 x WIndows 2012 R2 DP located in branch offices

    We are running SCCM 2012 R2 CU4, and have approx. 12500 client devices - so its not a massive estate

    So after going round in circles and a poor MDS engagement with local MS Partner I am now seeking help here....

    My initial plan was

    • Build new servers 2012 r2 with new names
    • Install SCCM 2012 R2 CU4 on new servers
    • Export current DB
    • Shutdown existing servers
    • Import to new servers
    • Rename new servers
    • In Place upgrade to 1710???

    any thoughts, advice would be appreciated.

    Why do you want to still install Server 2012 R2? That's on old OS.
    One way would be installing a new CM CB site and migrate everything over; use DP sharing and "move" them to the new site then.

    hello, thanks for the reply

    at the moment we have some licensing issues, that would need to be resolved before looking at later MS OS.

    Cool idea about a new site and migrate over, is there a good blog post anywhere about the process?
