I have applied that update last month, but appear to only be having the issue at a remote DP, and not on my Primary server.

Your ConfigMgr 2012 hierarchy must be running a minimum of 2012 SP1 in order to upgrade to 2012 R2. Then read the planning to upgrade to 2012 R2 article at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/library/jj822981.aspx#BKMK_PlanningR2Upgrade. There is a nice R2 upgrade checklist there that you should follow prior to upgrade, which includes testing the upgrade process against a copy of your site database, disabling any database replicas, disabling 3 specific site maintenance tasks, etc. Remember, uninstalling Service Packs or R2 is not supported, so make sure you don't rush through it and you've completed the recommended actions on the checklist! Avoid a replication issue if you have a CAS and have used PullDPs: To avoid this issue, if you have downloaded the R2 bits prior to 11/26/2013, re-download the R2 bits. More info on this one is available at:http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2013/11/26/replication-errors-in-system-center-2012-r2-configuration-manager.aspx Post R2 hotfixes of importance: Slow OSD WIM downloads issue or WDS Service failures when enabling a boot image for PXE enabled Distribution Point: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2905002. This post R2 hotfix has the usual prompts allowing you to create update packages for the administrator console, client, and site server. However, the administrator console .exe version does not change when installing this post R2 hotfix. Therefore, in order to detect if the adminconsole flavor of the hotfix is installed, you can query on the version # of CreateTsMediaAdm.dll or look for ConfigMgr2012AdminUI-R2-KB2905002-I386 in ARP. This hotfix will update the client version to 5.00.7958.1101. Computer variables defined for imported computers are not being picked up during Task Sequence execution:http://support.microsoft.com/KB/2907591. This post R2 hotfix updates policypv.dll to 5.0.7958.1103 and is required on site servers and on servers where you have the SMS provider installed. </Uber Important Stuff!!!> SOURCE http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgr_geek_speak/archive/2013/10/19/upgrading-to-system-center-configuration-manager-2012-r2.aspx On Sat, Dec 7, 2013 at 2:07 PM, Stephen Owen <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hey, Check this out, there was an update for R2 related to OSD. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2905002 This hot fix seems to fix the super slow OSD issue, which from what I remember reading is an issue with the way IIS is distributing content out to guest.

I am fine if I PXE boot image off of my Primary server. I see issues when using PXE booting off of a remote DP. We are seeing the very slow HTTP transfer when downloading the components of the TS, in particular the Toolkit package. I installed the 2905002 patch on the Primary server, recreated my boot images. I also applied the client side patch on the DP, as the server patch said it was N/A. Am I missing anything?
