Re: SCCM Site Hierarchy Question

I am planning out a build that should allow for later expansion. For now only one division will deploy SCCM 2007.

I envision a Central Site Server for enterprise wide management and reporting. It would not service any clients. Next below it would be Division Primary Site servers.

My question is about site hierarchy. When I first deploy SCCM do I need the Central Site server built first or can it be deployed later and then attach the first division's site server to it? If I deploy it first it is possible that it will sit unused forever if no other divisions decide to deploy SCCM also. Adding it later makes more financial sense, but I don't know if that is possible...

Anyone?

Thanks,

Steve


Adding it later is definitely possible.
