While the release of System Center Configuration Manager 2007 has been accompanied by robust functional and procedural product documentation, the integration of WSUS introduced two additional challenges:
Successful migration of SMS 2003 environments to Configuration Manager while maintaining the existing software update levels of service.
Clarifying a dramatic shift in a fundamental process in the minds of experienced SMS 2003 administrators.
This whitepaper provides guidance on how to migrate software update management from SMS 2003 to Configuration Manager, how to operate in the transition period while maintaining ongoing software update deployments for both SMS 2003 and Configuration Manager clients, and best practices for managing software updates using Configuration Manager.
This document assumes that the reader has experience with both SMS 2003 and the Inventory Tool for Microsoft Updates (ITMU). Additionally, it is beneficial for the reader to be familiar with the operational processes associated with enterprise software update management.

The Call for Sessions tool is located here:
https://www.mms-2008.com/Callforsessions.aspx
End Users and Consultants can submit any topics they are interested in presenting to this link. Note that as always we cannot accept sessions from Commercial organizations who develop or market management products.
Any past attendees or simply those interested in attending MMS 2008 may be interested in taking 10 mins to complete the MMS 2008 Content Survey at this location:
https://www.mms-2008.com/wizard/content_survey/wp1.aspx
The survey helps us select the sessions which best meet this year’s attendee requirements, and also helps the speakers in preparing their sessions, keeping them relevant to this year’s audience. Folks who complete the survey can also provide their email address in order to be entered in a draw for one of two new Archos 605 80Gb Portable Media Players (pretty cool!).
Note that both URLs use https:// not http://

Here are some Proof of Concept guidelines I put together that I thought you might find helpful. While this document provides an overview of installing Configuration Manager in a Proof of Concept (POC) environment, it should under no circumstances be considered a replacement for reviewing SCCM product documentation in detail prior to production deployment.

‘Finnegan’ is the name of my best friend’s young son. I received and then posted some new pictures of the little lad last night.
I just saw him in June but he’s growing quickly.
