About Brian Mason • Microsoft ConfigMgr MVP • Works for WELL known financial corporation • Runs MNSCUG (not in a user group? Talk to me!) • Runs 350K clients on CM07; CM12 in the lab only • Has run CM since SMS 2.0 days • Hasn’t skydived all year so he’s grumpy • But his primary sites are happy!
Session Agenda • Primary site considerations • Easing the load on primary sites • What MP replicas are • Demo: Let’s make a replica!
Redundancy Considerations • Primary site considerations • CAS vs Primary • Uptime and BCP considerations
Offloading roles • Offload all IIS related roles first • Offloading the MP role doesn’t offload all client requests as a hit; the MP still has to ask SQL on the primary for information like what package is on what DP.
The MP Replica Why bother with MP replication? • Even with CM12, the new replication model doesn’t involve MP traffic • Old CM07 benefits the same way • Don’t offload SQL replica to a single DB
SQL Considerations • MP needs SQL installed • SQL STD is free on CM boxes • So are the other SC products, BTW! • SQL install tips: • Always use a configuration file • Always slipstream SPs and CUs • Always cap memory on SQL • SQL12 offers an overall 10% boost
