Well, then I guess you'll have to install it by hand for your ConfigMgr box.

 

Honestly, it really frustrates me that people focus so much on their
"image," "build process" rather than focusing on their ongoing configuration
management processes.

 

In theory, you should be able to deploy a fresh operating system with
default configuration values across the board, and simply rope it into your
management "channels" (eg. SCCM, Active Directory GPO, etc.). If your
configuration management tools are set up correctly, then you shouldn't
really need a super complicated "build process" (or even worse, image).
Systems will naturally configure themselves according to the declared
standards, as they receive policy from the configuration management tools.

I agree - This whole discussion came about because a 2012 Image is not quite
ready.   :(

You may not want to hear it, but: Windows Server 2012 is a current OS, and
2008 R2 is 5 years old. The burden of justification is not on those who want
to install ConfigMgr on Windows Server 2012, but rather on the people
suggesting sticking with Windows Server 2008 R2.

 

You can go in circles and circles about this with whomever you want, for as
long as you want, but it always boils down to the above.

Subject: [mssms] CM2012 on Windows 8 R2 vs Windows 2012

 

I believe this has been discussed here before but it just came up in a
meeting today.  

 

We are being challenged to prove the necessity of Server 2012 for our CM2012
environment vs. Server 2008 R2.  Other than the obvious (server 2008 is
already 5+ years old) Can someone point me to a list of features from Server
2012 that pertain to CM2012.

 

Thanks
