Yes, Adaptiva can do that easily and is actually pretty easy to implement as well. By using Adaptiva OneSite you don't have a dedicated machine acting as a DP in your locations, but use a kind of P2P functionality and "every" machine in your location can act as a PXE point and DP. You get rid of all your ConfigMgr servers in your remote locations with this.
I just published an article on OneSite and probably put up some more in the future: http://www.david-obrien.net/2014/04/30/make-configmgr-boot-images-adaptiva-onesite-ready/ Cheers David -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Todd Hemsell Sent: Wednesday, May 7, 2014 7:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [mssms] Question about DP's Apparently Adaptiva also has this functionality http://www.adaptiva.com/blog/2011/adaptiva-one-site-bare-metal-osd-using-sccm-with-peer-to-peer-pxe/ Seems like some pretty big players are using it also http://www.marketwired.com/press-release/barclays-chooses-adaptiva-it-systems-management-suite-maximize-it-efficiency-extend-nyse-bcs-1776568.htm http://www.adaptiva.com/blog/2013/hsbc-selects-adaptiva-onesite-achieve-efficiency/ On Tue, May 6, 2014 at 10:19 AM, Daniel Ratliff <[email protected]> wrote: > 1E PXE Everywhere works great, we use it every day.
