SMS 1.2 and 2.0 Interoperability Scripts

SMS 2.0 provides the following scripts for use in sites that have SMS 2.0 and SMS 1.2. For information about using these scripts, see “Avoiding Contention Between Sites” in Chapter 5, “Upgrading from SMS 1.2 to SMS 2.0,” in the SMS 2.0 Administrator’s Guide.

SMSls20i.bat
SMSls20i.bat installs SMS 2.0 client software on resources that do not have SMS installed at all on them. If a resource is an SMS 1.2 client, this script leaves it alone.
SMSls12a.bat
SMSls12a.bat installs SMS 1.2 on resources that are not already SMS 2.0 clients. If a resource is an SMS 2.0 client, this script leaves it alone. Use this script if the SMS 1.2 site’s Windows NT domain is being used exclusively by an SMS 1.2 site, but this SMS 1.2 site might encounter existing SMS 2.0 clients (due to a phased upgrade or your SMS 2.0 site’s boundaries).
SMSls12i.bat
SMSls12i.bat installs SMS 1.2 on resources that are not already SMS 2.0 clients. If a resource is an SMS 2.0 client, this script leaves it alone. Use this script if the SMS 1.2 site’s Windows NT domain is being shared by an SMS 1.2 site and at least one SMS 2.0 site.

Note   To use the interoperability scripts, you must rename SMS\Data\NT_logon\
NT_logon.pcf to NT_logon.old, and then rename NT_logon_interop.pcf to NT_logon.pcf.

Logon Points That Are Exclusively SMS 2.0

The interoperability scripts need files that are found only on SMS 1.2 sites. If you use interoperability scripts, these scripts are copied to all logon points for the SMS 2.0 site. If any of those logon points is not also an SMS 1.2 logon point, the needed files will not be present and errors will occur when a client logs on. Therefore, if any clients are logging on to an SMS 2.0-only logon point using interoperability scripts, you must make the following changes to ensure that the SMS 1.2 files appear on those SMS 2.0-only logon points:

Procedure Bullet  To use interoperability scripts for SMS 2.0-only logon points

  1. Add the following lines to the [SCRIPT FILE LIST] section of SMS\Data\
    NT_logon\NT_logon_interop.pcf before renaming it to NT_logon.pcf:
    2. Clrlevel.com   = Bin\i386\Clrlevel.comDosver.com     = Bin\i386\Dosver.comNetspeed.com   = Bin\i386\Netspeed.comNetspeed.dat   = Bin\i386\Netspeed.dat
  2. Copy the files listed in step 1 from SMS\Site.srv\Maincfg.box\Client.src on the SMS 1.2 site to SMS\Bin\i386 on the SMS 2.0 site.
  3. Rename SMS\Data\NT_logon\NT_logon.pcf to NT_logon.old, and then rename the modified NT_logon_interop.pcf file to NT_logon.pcf.
