New Features in SCCM 2207 Technical Preview Version

Features in Configuration Manager technical preview version 2207, Let’s see what the features and improvements of SCCM 2207 Technical Preview are –

Distribution Point Content Migration

Starting with SCCM 2207 Technical Preview Version, Distribution point content migration support is now available for migrating content from one distribution point to another distribution point using PowerShell cmdlets. You can also monitor the distribution point migration status using these PowerShell cmdlets.

There are multiple scenarios where the content of one distribution point needs to be migrated to another distribution point.

  • Cloud distribution points (CDP) hosted on Azure classic services are getting deprecated by mid of 2024. You need to migrate CDP content to another distribution point.
  • Migration of cloud migration gateway v1 (CMGv1) hosted with *.cloudapp.net domain is also getting deprecated, hence you may need to migrate CMGv1 content to another distribution point.
  • You may need to migrate local distribution point content to another local distribution point or CMG.

Prerequisites – Distribution Point Content Migration

  • The user’s security role permission should have “Copy to Distribution Point” enabled under Distribution Point.
  • If you want to deprecate the source distribution point, make sure that the source and destination distribution points have the same boundary group.
  • The destination distribution point should be installed already and able to receive the content.

Migrate Distribution Point using Powershell

SCCM PowerShell cmdlets help admins to automate the distribution point content migration. You can also monitor the distribution point migration status using these PowerShell cmdlets that is great add-on in SCCM 2207 technical preview –

  • Start-CMDistributionPointMigration : Use this cmdlet to initiate distribution point content migration.
Get-CMDistributionPointMigrationStatus -SourceDistributionPointName <FQDN for source distribution point> -DestinationDistributionPointName <FQDN for destination distribution point>

SourceDistributionPointName: Use this to specify the source distribution point from where content will be migrated.

DestinationDistributionPointName: Use this to specify the destination distribution point where you want the content to be copied.

Note – You won’t be able to perform multiple migrations at a shared time. Migration for one set of source and destination distribution points needs to be completed before starting another.
