Advice on Replacing Primary Site Server

Question

We are having multiple issues with our current SCCM 1806 Primary Site Server. All roles are on a single server and it is the only one in the hierarchy. We are going to replace it with a new SCEM 2002 Server. Are we best to use the same Site Code, Server Name, IP Address, etc.? Or are we best to go with all new Site Code, etc?

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

We are going to replace it with a new SCEM 2002 Server.

It's recommended that we could use a SCCM 2006, the life cycle of the SCCM 2002 will end at the October 1, 2021.

If we want consolidation migration environment, please refer to this similar case:

Have a good day!

Answer 2

This is a disconnected site (No internet)
So I can only begin with the latest version of media available which is v.2002.
After I build the server, I will then have to use the Service Connection Tool to do the Prepare, Connect and Import Steps.
Then I can bring the server up to v.2006 or 2010.
It's unfortunate that MS hasn't released a newer version of SCEM Installation Media.
