With previous in-place OS upgrade from Windows Server 2008 R2 to Windows Server 2012/R2, it was required to removed WSUS.

In this post, we will detail how to do an in-place OS upgrade from Windows Server 2012 R2 to Windows Server 2016, on an SCCM primary site with SQL installed locally. We can assume that we’ll see more of those new features requiring Windows Server 2016 in the future. Now with SCCM 1706, some of the new features like Manage Microsoft Surface driver updates, requires that all Software Update Point (WSUS) runs on Windows Server 2016. With SCCM 1702, it’s required to run site servers on a Windows Server higher than 2008 R2.

The latest releases of SCCM Current Branch(17) bring a new round of requirements.
