Upgrade to Virtual Machine Manager 2012 R2 RTM  from 2012 SP1

Virtual Machine Manager doesn't support in-place upgrade, another bad new is the P2V utility is not supported on  VMM 2012 R2. 


Now going over the process, it will be straight forward, as always I recommed you to have a back out plan.  

















Tasks:
  • Uninstall SCVMM Management Server and Console 
    • Retain Database on SQL
    • Uninstall ADK 8.0 (It will require a Restart)
  • Install ADK 8.1 with the same features. 
[Note: After Install ADK8.1 you will be able to install  SCVMM 2012 R2 RTM]

 Step by Step 

 Uninstall VMM MS and Console 













Retain Database 














Uninstalled 















Install VMM 2012 R2 RTM 














Select the existing Database VirtualManagerDB

















Now it will be upgrading the Database 







Done Enjoy ! 

Thanks for watching!

Update Rollup 3 for System Center 2012 R2 Service Manager   Issues that are fixed in this update rollup Service Manager The Microsoft Systems Center 2012 Operations Manager configuration item (CI) connector does not retrieve disk mount point information for the Service Manager database.
