Hi all, I am feeling really proud, cause my first book has been published a few days ago.
A few months ago, the guys from PacktPublishing asked me to write the System Center 2016 Orchestrator Cookbook. It took not too long to make a decision and this was positive.
So I have decided not only to write an update, I have done a complete makeover of this book.
I have added a lot of new Recipes and have added a lot of my experience from the past 6 years. In the End, we have a complete new book, so go ahead and get your copy.
Don’t forget to write a Review on Amazon.
Thanks
Michael Seidl aka Techguy

System Center Data Protection Manager have come a long way, and has gotten some cool new features in the last few years.
Cloud Backup, VMware Support, best Backup Solution for Microsoft Products, support for all the new Server 2016 Features like Storage Spaces Direct, RCT, Virtual TPM, Backup Mixed Mode Cluster and many more.
System Center Data Protection Manager has been always the first choice for our Customers, to provide a perfect Backup Solution of their Microsoft workload, fully integrated in their Microsoft Datacenter and the possibility to store the long term Backup to the Cloud.
So, SCDPM 2016 has been released in Q4 2016 and we got a huge new Feature to store our Backup files called Modern Backup Storage.

System Center Orchestrator should be the first Product to upgrade to 2016, so we also will start with SCO.
The Upgrade is straight forward and an easy one, but we have some pre-checks to make sure everything runs smooth.
First we will make a small Health Check to make sure SCO is doing fine, afterwards we proceed with our Backups followed by uninstall 2012 R2 and Installing 2016.
Lets go.
We normally use the “Orchestrator Health Checker” to get a quick overview of our environment. You an download the small Tool here: http://scorch.codeplex.com/releases/view/99063
So take a look at your running and queued Runbooks and make sure nothing important is sill running or not to many Runbooks are in Queue.
After we have made sure that our SCO is healthy, we can take the next step.
