SUMMARY
When you upgrade an existing Systems Management Server site server by
running setup from the Systems Management Server compact disc, the "Systems
Management Server" program group will be deleted and recreated by the Setup
program.
MORE INFORMATION
In order to upgrade a primary site server, Setup.bat must be executed from
the SMSSETUP directory on the Systems Management Server compact disc. Next
choose "Upgrade Site" from the setup menu that is presented.
At the end of the upgrade process, the existing "Systems Management Server"
common program group will be deleted and then recreated with all of the
standard icons. Any additional icons, like the Crystal Reports icons or
other custom icons, will be deleted.
To avoid losing custom icons and those created by installing Crystal
Reports, rename the "Systems Management Server" group prior to performing
the upgrade.
NOTE: Applying a Systems Management Server service pack does not affect
the program group in any way.
