Now ConfigMgr 2012 Beta 2 is configured right (see my other blogs about ConfigMgr 2012 for that), the server must be get ready for Patch Management. On this server WSUS is installed, and the database is hosted on the SQL server. Default I change the rights on the WSUS root folder to Network Service - Full control. Otherwise error messages can be shown when synchronizing Software Updates. (For example: License agreement not ready)
This blog will dive deeper in Site roles. Beneath "Servers and Site System Roles" all Site servers and Site roles will be seen. Default the following roles will be seen on the Site server: Component server, Distribution point, Management point, Site database server, Site server and Site system.
My second blog about ConfigMgr 2012 B2 configuration! The first one were most about Discovery Methods and new collections. This blog will dive deeper in Site settings and Client settings. Both features are complete different when setting up in this new release. First have a look at the Site settings then.
Today I installed ConfigMgr 2012 Beta 2 again with my PQR collegue Stephan Wibier. Now also the default configuration (Administration) is done, for getting new functionality to work. This installation will be used to manage the virtual (www.virtuall.eu) environment, and will also be used for Patch management. We have seen many new functionalities today! Till now they are all improvements!
When installing ConfigMgr 2007 on a clustered SQL Server Instance, specific configuration is needed. Then preparing for a ConfigMgr installation must happen on all servers which are part of the SQL cluster. How that works I will explain in this blog. Because it's not always usual to install ConfigMgr on a clustered SQL Server Instance, remember to follow these steps!
On 23 march 2011 during MMS 2011 in Las Vegas, ConfigMgr 2012 Beta 2 is released. Because I'm doing ConfigMgr implementations most of times, I want to know which changes are made during installation. In this blog the setup of this new release is viewed, to see if there are any differences between previous releases. This installation is done on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise x64 server.
