For IT admins planning to transition their co-management patching workload from System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) to Microsoft Intune’s Windows Update for Business (WUfB), this guide offers valuable insights.
Key Differences: SCCM Software Update Groups vs WUfB Rings
Understanding the differences between SCCM Software Update Groups and WUfB rings is essential when planning your patching workload transition.
Planning Your Patching Workload Transition
Configure WUfB rings in Intune with equivalent deferral periods to match the SCCM setup. This ensures a seamless switchover during the pilot phase.
Switching Co-management Patching Workload
Start by switching co-management patching workload for a pilot group in Intune. Validate compliance and make any necessary adjustments before broadening the rollout.
Managing Dual Patching During Transition Period
During the transition period, manage dual patching by ensuring both SCCM and Intune are delivering updates to your devices.
Validating Patch Compliance After Workload Switch
Verify patch compliance after the workload switch by monitoring the pilot group and making any necessary adjustments before broadening rollout to the entire organization.
Conclusion
Streamline your patch management by migrating SCCM Software Update Groups to Intune’s Windows Update for Business. Learn more about our Microsoft Intune Training here.
