SCCM 2012 site codes

Recommended Posts

I currently have SCCM 2007 in place and plan on doing the side-by-side migration to SCCM 2012. I know I can't use the same site codes and such, but because of our current server naming scheme, I would like to reuse my server names. I have a plan in my head and was wondering if anyone could tell me if it will work.

 

Perform the side-by-side migration from 2007 to 2012 using new servers (different names) and new site codes. After the migration is complete and everything appears to be working properly, shut down the 2007 servers and delete them from the domain (do I need to do anything special to delete the SCCM info from the domain?). After that, I would like to create new servers using the original server names (that 2007 used) and site codes and then migrate SCCM to those. (Is there a way to do a side by side migration from 2012 to 2012?)

 

Will that work or is it a bad plan?

That is a bit of work just to keep a server name. Personally, I would just start fresh from start if I was so caught up in keeping server naming convention. Also, due to the fact that you'll be doing a 2012 to 2012 migration; I would place a call to MS, just to be on the safe side, and maybe get some feedback from them.

 

I've never done a 2012 to 2012 migration on any of my labs, so I wouldn't be able to give you any good feedback. As stated, the move seems fine, but what about schema information, and GUIDs if applicable, that may change once you start making those changes?

 

Again, I would place a call to MS just to be safe.
