SCCM 1806 Slow Ring Production Version is Released ConfigMgr

Let’s learn SCCM 1806 Slow Ring Production Version is Released ConfigMgr. Microsoft released the SCCM 1806 update via a SLOW ring on August 17, 2018.

If you have an online service connection point, the 1806 update will be available in the SCCM console.

There is no longer a need to run the opt-in PS script to make  SCCM 1806 available. However, the slow ring will be available only if your existing SCCM versions are 1706, 1710, or 1802.

I have seen many questions related to hotfixes for 1802. Do you need to install the hotfixes available for the 1802 version (1802 known issues)? The answer to that question is NO. You can skip the hotfixes, which are available in 1802, or prior arrangements.

Also, he mentioned that if hotfixes are needed for the installed version of SCCM 1806, they will be available automatically in the console. Check out the SCCM Full version and client version details for more information.

SCCM 1806 Fast Ring (opt-in) – Full Version is 5.00.8692.1000, and client version is  5.00.8692.1003
