Wally Mead did some research to more thoroughly answer some questions that were raised at the meeting. Please find the answers to those questions below:
Want the type of maintenance window displayed in the Collection properties *** DCR previously filed
Want VHDX support *** DCR previously filed
Want more control over automatic client upgrades – switches to enable for desktops versus servers *** DCR filed
Can you use SQL Express to test a database upgrade process? *** No, you can’t. The code blocks it, as it does an upgrade of the database, and we only support primary and CAS on full SQL Server editions.
Are the MDT databases compatible between versions (for upgrade from MDT 2012 Update 1 to MDT 2013)? *** The database is compatible with the new version. There is one issue with apps that have names longer than 255 characters, other than that, all should be good.
Any known issues with extracting prestaged content files when multiple packages are in the file? *** Our team has never experienced that in our testing, and indicated no reports from anyone for it. So the suggestion is to open a case with CSS to have them look into it.
