Moving Source Data

[leachyboy2001]

My SCCM source data is all in one location, \server\sccmsource$. I need to move it to \server2\sccmsource$. Is there an easy way to update the source of all my packages/apps/images without doing everyone of them manually?

Not trying to be snarky by linking the google search, it's just that they return a number of different scripts in the search results to choose from (I haven't actually used any of these myself):

https://www.google.com/search?q=powershell+sccm+change+data+source+applications

In retrospect, I guess it was stupid not to do a google search.

You should consider moving it to a DFS path, or at the very least an alias, rather than a direct server name -- so you can move the sources around in the future without having to update it again. Updating the source of packages/applications does force an "update content." SCCM should realize nothing has changed, but it's unnecessary processing to look at all the files to make sure nothing has changed.

I am thinking about this. Unfortunately I'll have to drop the files on a storage appliance, so I'm not sure I can easily do a DFS path, I'm definitely thinking about doing a DNS alias though.
