A. SCCM requires the following roles and features for a successful installation.

  • Web Server role with ASP, ASP.NET, WebDAV, Windows Authentication, Static Content, and IIS 6 Management and WMI compatibility

  • Windows Deployment Service (WDS) role if the server is a Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) service point

  • Background Intelligent Transfer feature

  • Remote Differential Compression feature

  • Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), if you're installing the software update role

Microsoft provides a Technet site with guidelines on WebDAV and IIS configuration for SCCM.
