Trevor, Curious as to why you killed CCMSETUP first? As a best practice just in case it's running still from a previous attempt?

The upgrade process went flawlessly. I used a wrapper batch file that would: 1. Kill ccmsetup.exe (if running) using taskkill.exe 2. Launch ccmsetup.exe with the /NoService parameter 3. Install Microsoft KB2905002 using msiexec.exe /update There was some issue I ran into while trying to install KB2905002 using the PATCH property, but I cannot recall what it was. That's why I just used msiexec.exe Cheers, Trevor Sullivan From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com> [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of Elias Leal Sent: Friday, January 24, 2014 3:38 PM To: mssms@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:mssms@lists.myitforum.com> Subject: [mssms] R2 client upgrade question I am curious what everyone is doing with R2 client upgrades. Outside of OSD and before addressing the R2 hotfix KB2905002, I am trying to figure the best way to upgrade clients from the SP1 CU3 version (5.00.7804.1400) to the initial R2 version (5.00.7958.1000). Some observations... 1. From previous email threads, I've notice recommendations to use "Automatic Client Upgrade". However, when I enable this feature...there is wording in the UI that says"Clients in slow or unreliable boundaries will not be upgraded automatically". 2. When I installed R2 on my lab primary site, there wasn't an option to include a client installer package like how we saw with SP1 or CU3 site installs (unless I missed that). So, I am trying to confirm if my observations are correct. And if so, what is everyone doing with client upgrades in slow boundaries? Do we create a package for them? Thanks, Elias
