Voted! Also added a comment. This is a great request. When we upgraded to R2 we had dozens of technicians that did not follow instructions and could not connect because they were still running the SP1 console. If this feature is added, please make sure the notification also happens after you connect to a site, even if the connection is not successful.

(see the title bar in the attached screenshot for the concept....) "Today, you can be running a console with one version, that is not in sync with what is running on the primary. The only way you'll know is if you are missing features added to a newer release or if troubleshooting leads you down that route. You have to check the about page in the console to verify version number and compare that against what is installed on the Primary site server to see if they match, what I'm proposing is an easy visual way in the console to inform you when your versions don't match, and to offer the ability to upgrade via a simple click,." public link https://connect.microsoft.com/ConfigurationManagervnext/feedback/details/1049659/dcr-show-version-incompatability-and-allow-ability-to-upgrade-console-to-match-the-primary-site-version-of-configuration-manager mvp link https://connect.microsoft.com/ConfigurationManagervnext/feedback/details/1049655/mvp-dcr-configuration-manager-console-should-alert-you-to-newer-version-availability cheers niall.
