SCCM ConfigMgr CB 1707 Preview Upgrade Video Tutorial

Let’s discuss the SCCM ConfigMgr CB 1707 Preview Upgrade Video Tutorial. The SCCM/ConfigMgr CB 1707 preview version was released last week. I enjoyed upgrading my SCCM CB 1706 preview version to 1707.

As expected, this was a straightforward process for me. I didn’t see any issues during the upgrade process of SCCM CB 1707. We see the SCCM ConfigMgr CB 1707 Preview Upgrade Video Tutorial in this post.

Preview versions of SCCM CB should NOT be deployed to a production environment. This is similar to the Windows Insiders program, which helps SCCM admins test the new features of SCCM CB.

Before installing this technical preview version, you can review the limitations of the SCCM CB version.

Known Issues with SCCM CB 1707 Upgrade

SCCM CB 1707 upgrade process has not changed much. It’s the same as the preview SCCM CB preview upgrades. New features have been introduced in this preview version. There are some known issues with an upgrade when you install a passive primary server. 

The issue is the only application for the SCCM environment with 1706 TP and used the site server always-on, a feature that means the passive site server was configured.
