Configuration Manager provides remote control, patch management, software distribution, operating system deployment, network access protection, and hardware and software inventory. The SMS Provider is used by the Configuration Manager console, Resource Explorer, tools, and custom scripts used by Configuration Manager administrators to access site information stored in the site database.
Manages clients in well-connected networks. The Central Site can administer any site below it in the hierarchy and can send data down to those sites as well. A secondary site is always a secondary site. It cannot be upgraded, moved, or changed without deleting it and reinstalling it. If you delete and reinstall, you lose all secondary site data. You need to add the Software Update Point site role to the site, configure the software update point as active, configure the products, classifications, sync settings, etc.
Once synchronization completes, you will see the metadata in the Configuration Manager console. To distribute software you must have a package, a program and an advertisement. Advertisements can only be sent to collections, not to computers. If you want to distribute a package to a single computer, you must create a collection for that computer.
You can configure more than one management points in a site, but only one of those management points can be configured as the default management point to support intranet clients in the site. If you are concerned about performance, you can configure more than one management point, configure them to be part of a Network Load Balancing NLB cluster, and them configure the NLB cluster as the default management point.
A secondary site cannot have a primary or secondary site reporting to it. Secondary sites are always child sites to a primary site. Client Push Installation is the only client installation method that requires clients to be discovered first. Answer: Yes we can do. More on upgrading secondary sites….. Question: Can you change a secondary site to a primary site? Answer: No. A secondary site is always a secondary site. It cannot be upgraded, moved, or changed without deleting it and reinstalling it.
If you delete and reinstall, you lose all secondary site data. Question: Can you distribute a package to a computer without making it a member of a collection? To distribute software you must have a package, a program and an advertisement.
Advertisements can only be sent to collections, not to computers. If you want to distribute a package to a single computer, you must create a collection for that computer. Question: Can a site have more than one default management point?
You can configure more than one management points in a site, but only one of those management points can be configured as the default management point to support intranet clients in the site. If you are concerned about performance, you can configure more than one management point, configure them to be part of a Network Load Balancing NLB cluster, and them configure the NLB cluster as the default management point.
Question: Can a secondary site have child sites? A secondary site cannot have a primary or secondary site reporting to it. Secondary sites are always child sites to a primary site.
Question: Can you install the Configuration Manager client components without discovering the computer first? Answer: Yes. Client Push Installation is the only client installation method that requires clients to be discovered first. PKI authentication helps provide a greater level of security, but Configuration Manager does not help you install or configure the PKI infrastructure. Question: Can computers show up in the Configuration Manager console before they have the Configuration Manager client installed?
If you use a discovery method, Configuration Manager can find many resources and create data discovery records DDRs for them, and those DDRs are stored in the database.
However, you cannot use Configuration Manager features such as software distribution, software updates management, and inventory until you install the client components.
