If so, did you layer the R2 update onto the secondary site server. I only ask as I have attempted this scenario, i.e. Install primary site &amp; upgrade to SP1 &amp; R2. From this site I installed a secondary site server &amp; manually applied the R2 upgrade. The R2 installation completes successfully but when I look at the secondary site system properties for the R2 option it says that it has NOT been installed. Any ideas how I can resolve this?</p> <p>Martin.</p> http://blogs.technet.com/virtualworld/archive/2008/03/27/beta-4-5-and-beta-sccm-r2-how-to-get-a-quick-test-lab-for-sccm-r2.aspx#3055077Wed, 14 May 2008 16:41:05 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:3055077Justin Zarb<p>Hi Martin,</p> <p>Have you installed the latest SP1 package from connect. if so than the R2 installation will not work. R2 is currently only compatable with the SP1 Beta.

I looked at the DP and I had the new features.</p> <p>Hope this helps~ Wade</p>
