SMS 2003 Admin Console SP2

[GSC]

Hi,
Were in the process of upgrading to SMS 2003 SP2.
My question:
- Is it possible to update all SMS 2003 Admin consoles with SP2 through a package or do I have to instruct the local site admins to do an upgrade on their SMS 2003 admin consoles?

Thanks.
GSC

here is one way..

and another

\\server\sourceshare$\sms\smssetup\bin\i386\setup.exe <file://\\server\sourceshare$\sms\smssetup\bin\i386\setup.exe> /NoUserInput /Hidden /Script \\server\sourceshare$\sms\AdminConsole\AdminConsole.ini <file://\\server\sourceshare$\sms\AdminConsole\AdminConsole.ini>

and then the following in the ini:

[Identification]
Action = InstallAdminUI

[Options]
FullName = YourOrganizationName
OrgName = YourOrganizationName
ProductID = 123-4567890
SMSInstallDir = C:\Program FIles\SMSADMIN
SDKServer = YourSMSSiteServer

and yet another:

Hi,

Thanks for the tips.
I ended up creating a package with the /upgrade switch.
In SMS I set the package to run "hidden" and the update to SP2 worked like a dream.

Cheers,
