Filled with just the stuff you need Chris Lee Mullins I've no idea where the "filled with extra stuff" comments are coming from. Fact is, many people buying this book are going to be **very** concerned with the differences between CM7 and CM12. Where migrating from SMS 2003 to ConfigMgr 2007 wasn't particularly difficult (yeah, lots of additional features in CM7 vs SMS, but it looked the same, and aside from the SUP vs ITMU, you could afford to ignore the additions if you had to), CM12 is an almost totally different animal.As a System Center engineer for the last. Good Overview But Lacking Some Depth Justin Howell I picked up this book after already working with a new Config Manager 2012 deployment when I got tired of getting lost in the Technet library. It lays things out much more simply and gives real world scenarios and honest advice. A lot of the sections are pretty heavy on just stepping through wizards, but it's the nature of the beast when Microsoft actually puts out a product with intuitive wizards.I will agree that it's not super in-depth. Very critical procedures are barely scratched upon - for example, build. Great For Noobs!!! I must admit that I'm no pro when it comes to the likes of SCCM. I dabbled with SCCM 2007, vNext and the Beta versions of 2012 so I had a general grasp on the software, but implementing it in production was proving to be a real hassle. Basic installation went OK thanks to the help of [] but I kept getting monitoring errors. These were due mostly in part to my lack of experience with the software and its requirements.This book is great, and a lot more help than I thought it would be! The information is helpful
