The installation reported was successful. however the secondardy site has not appeared in the primary sites management console. The environment is all Windows Server 2008 R2 and using SCCM 2007 R2 and has only been installed for 2 weeks.

Hi Justin, Have you used preinst.exe to exchange the keys between the two sites as described here - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb693690.aspxKent Agerlund | http://scug.dk/ | The Danish community for System Center products

Hi Kent Thank you for the pointer, I have now managed to exchange the keys between the sites using preinst.exe. Is this a common issue with building Secondary sites? As this is my first secondary site of many. Justin
