Hi @ all,

I have a Central site and a primary site server running - all is working fine. Now I have to provide another primary site server. I setuo the server and connected the new site to the Central site - all is working fine.

But on my forst primary site (P1) are some (many) software packages which I would like to deploy on the new primary site server (P2). Is it possible to establich a connection from P1 to P2 so that I can handle P2 as a distribution point from P1.

On the other site the only way I see is to copy all software packgaes from P1 to the Central Site and ditribute the packages to the P1 and P2.

Maybe there is a way which I don't see. Every help is very apreciated.

Many thanks for your attention.

Hi Jason,

thanky for your reply. This way to is not the way I would like to go.

I'll be able to make a decision, if I sent the package from P1 to P2. I'm sorry, but I did not explain that the P1 and P2 will work in parallel - because the servers are for two different branches. But the P1 server contains software which can be used in the other branch offfice. We are using SCCM 2007 R3 - I forgot in my first post.

I hope this helps to understand which problem I have to solve.

No, first content is not distributed DP to DP in ConfigMgr 2007 at all; DPs receive content from their site server. Additionally content flows down a hierarchy from site server to site server.

That's why I recommend the alternate solution of using the package pre-load tool. This will allow you to import content (in the form of a pck file) that you manually copied to P2 from P1.
