At Last!!! But i only have the Volume licensing.

@Arthur your links don't work

[Arthur]

your links don't work

Which ones?

[Gatt]

Just in time too after I got affected by a bug that kills the MP if you have WMF 3.0 installed... @FN-GM - I just went straight to TechNet and downloading from there..

[FN-GM]

@Arthur Its the whats new links
@Gatt i don't have TechNet

[Arthur]

It's the what's new links

That's strange. They are working for me.

[FN-GM]

Hmm they do now.

[Gatt]

Working for me too here...

Just downloaded the ISO - can't tell if its just the SP or if its CM12 with SP1 integrated in.
RTM ISO = 1.7GB
SP1 ISO = 902MB

Folder structure on both seems similar so wondering if its akin to 2007 R3....

Not installing it now as I want to get snapshots of my SCCM server and SQL server first..

I wish I had known about this earlier!!

System Centre Virtual Machine Manager 2012 - Error (2911)

Oh well, finally back up and working now.

Whilst SC2012 SP1 brings nice new features and updates, I hadn't planned to rebuild our DPM2012 and SCVMM2012 servers from 2008 R2 to 2012 so soon.

Typically they ahvent yet released the non Windows OS client packs

Did your system centre sp1 upgrade to day and it broke our pxe boot.

On the smspxe log file it suggested it was missing some font files for the boot images did a search on the server and put them back where the log file says it was missing from and it seems to have sorted the issue.

[FN-GM]

Its not broken my PXE but has broken OSD. It is ignoring my steps to install packages and install updates. The log shows "Unable to read SMS client cert from environment. Not restoring SMS client cert. OSDSetupHook."

[Gatt]

Anyone know if the client for Linux has been updated for SP1 final?
Can only find the links to the SP1 Beta clients...

[Arthur]

A few more SP1-related links that may be useful.

• Configuration Manager 2012 SP1 RTM Installation
  Note. Configuration Manager 2012 SP1 does support SQL 2012, however, it does not yet support SQL 2012 SP1. If you installed SQL 2012 SP1, and ran Windows Update and allowed it to install SP1, I’d recommend re-installing SQL 2012 without SP1 or you will have issues.
