Server Deployment

Section Agenda Hierarchy Expansion Upgrade Overview Process
vs Site Attach Upgrade Supported Paths Considerations Interoperability

Hierarchy Expansion: Overview
Grow your hierarchy with your organization Freedom to use a standalone primary as long as you need

Hierarchy Expansion: Overview
Central Administration Site More than 100K clients in hierarchy. So essentially you need a central to add multiple primaries and to scale out beyond 100K clients Any other time you might need more than one primary site in hierarchy Network/Security requirements Multiple Network Access Accounts Central Administration Site Primary Site Primary Site Secondary Site Secondary Site Distribution Point

Hierarchy Expansion: Process
Primary Site Central Administration Site Global Data initialized Primary Site

Hierarchy Expansion: Process
After you expand: Immediately after expansion, there will be a spike in Software Update Management activity when the new Central Administration Site synchronizes with the original primary site The original standalone primary will have a separate “default” Boot WIM for OSD – the original boot WIM for that site. Packages created at the original standalone primary site will still be handled by the Distribution Manager service on the standalone primary, not the CAS

Hierarchy Expansion vs. Site Attach
Configuration Manager 2007 Configuration Manager 2012 Scenario Equivalent Join site to a hierarchy Mergers & Acquisitions Handle hierarchy changes Fix problematic attach New Site setup Migration Redeploy/Less of an issue with simplified hierarchies N/A

Upgrade and Interop

Upgrade Considerations
All Upgrades must be top-down (i.e. start with the CAS) You will need to install Windows Assessment and Deployment Toolkit (ADK) components on appropriate site systems Deployment Tools – All sites and providers Windows PE – All sites and providers USMT – Top-level site only SP1 clients cannot be assigned to RTM sites Always run testDBUpgrade validations against a copy of your DataBase

Upgrade: Interoperability
TechReady 16 9/22/2018 Upgrade: Interoperability User upgrades CAS to SP1 Schema is replicated throughout the hierarchy Hierarchy is now in Interoperability Mode All Primaries must be upgraded to get out of interop mode Primary Site Primary Site Interop: On Interop: Off © 2013 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. Microsoft, Windows, and other product names are or may be registered trademarks and/or trademarks in the U.S. and/or other countries.

MICROSOFT MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, AS TO THE INFORMATION IN THIS PRESENTATION.

Upgrade: Interoperability
When a hierarchy is not fully upgraded, some SP1 features will not be available Functionality that cannot be used will be marked Current incompatible functionality include: New Deployment Types (App-V, Mac, Metro) Migration App-V Virtual Environments Once the hierarchy has been upgraded, all features will be available.

Migration

Migration from ConfigMgr 2012 Hierarchy
ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 Migrate CAS CAS Primary Site Primary Site Primary Site Primary Site Facilitate moving objects from test environment to production environment Help merging two ConfigMgr 2012 hierarchies

Comparison Migrate from ConfigMgr 2007 Migrate from ConfigMgr 2012 SP1
Distribution Point Sharing Unchanged Distribution Point Upgrading Distribution Point Reassignment Collection Migration Migrate collection using object migration Package Migration DCM objects Migration Software Update objects Migration OSD objects Migration Asset Intelligence objects Migration Metering Rules Migration N/A Application Migration App-V Virtual Environment Migration Saved Search Migration

Data not migrated Client Client Data Security Objects
Use client reassignment to reassign clients to the destination hierarchy Client Data HINV, SINV, Metering Security Objects Roles, Security scope, Accounts

Eligible DPs for upgrading/sharing
Most Distribution Points are eligible for sharing FQDN must be configured Client must be removed from Branch Distribution Point OS for Distribution point must meet 2012 requirements Standalone Co-located with other site roles Co-located with secondary site server Standard DP Y N DP on Server Shares *Branch DP

Disk Space Requirement
You must allocate disk space on the target distribution point equal to twice the disk space used by the packages New for SP1: original packages will be removed after they have been converted

Secondary Site Upgrade
Consider: Do I need a Secondary Site in ConfigMgr 2012? Distribution Points have scheduling and throttling capabilities Secondary Site allows concentration of network traffic for upward flow Secondary Site can also be used for content fan out I need a secondary site! Create a ConfigMgr 2012 secondary site Upgrade the DPs then attach them to the new site Decommission the ConfigMgr 2007 secondary site

New distribution points

Pull Distribution Point
Microsoft Consumer Channels and Central Marketing Group 9/22/2018 Pull Distribution Point What is a Pull Distribution Point? A regular Distribution Point but they will pull content from other Distribution Points/Site Server, rather than having the content pushed from the Site Server It is not a BDP!

Cloud Distribution Point
Microsoft Consumer Channels and Central Marketing Group 9/22/2018 Cloud Distribution Point What are the operational benefits of Cloud DP? No need to deploy HW to each location Add remove resources on demand Server roles in Windows Azure are automatically patched. %99.9 availability of servers hosted in Azure What are the deployment benefits of Cloud DP?

Replication Traffic & DB Config Improvements
Replication traffic compression Decrease CAS traffic size ~ > 70% Increase SQL CPU ~ < 11% Default on for all links Change SQL Server Service Broker Ports Ease management for security Configure replication retention threshold Allow for extended outages Configure for problematic networks

Replication Improvements – Distributed Views
Well connected site servers Typically located in same physical location “Always” connected Reduce site data replication Reduce SQL server replication loads Improve SQL server performance Improve network bandwidth *Notes: Single provider supported at the CAS Single SRS at the CAS

Replication Improvements – Schedule Site Data
Well connected site servers Protect business critical network applications Use excess bandwidth Reduce site data replication frequency Reduce SQL server replication loads Improve SQL server performance Improve network bandwidth *Note: Distributed views and scheduling are mutually exclusive

Replication Improvements – Link Status
Customize replication link alerts per link Allowances for sub-optimal networks Adjust to support server performance capability Modify for “known” network issues

Replication Traffic Reports

Network traffic summarization is global data Enable dialogue with network ops Provide detail information SQL replication traffic reporting Understand how ConfigMgr SQL replication affects network

Replication Link Analyzer Improvements

Replication Link Analyzer
UI improvements Provide cleaner screen feedback Additional text real estate Additional analysis and remediation rules Prompt for credentials May release additional rules after your receive TAP SP1 Beta Easy to refresh Refresh on each device with admin console installed

Secondary Site Recovery

Easy secondary site recovery Prepare secondary site hardware with all prerequisites as if new installation Approach: Deploy SS “like new” but perform reinit with existing data Potential loss of local DP content library All SS remote DP content for that secondary remain intact Will recover existing content library if intact *NOTE: Must install same version of SQL DB as prereq
