Description

The current template installs SCCM Current Branch version 2403. However, users wanting to install or upgrade to **version 2503** will encounter installation failures unless the following components are pre-installed:

- **.NET Framework 4.8**
- **Microsoft ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server**

These are **required prerequisites** for version 2503. Right now, the template does not install them, which blocks any upgrade attempts unless the user manually installs them in the VM before running setup.

**Request:** Please update the template to install these two components automatically so users can upgrade or switch to version 2503 without manual intervention.

Thank you for maintaining this resource!

Research direction

Locate the Azure template that installs SCCM Current Branch 2403 and inspect how its VM prerequisites are installed before setup runs. Add installation of .NET Framework 4.8 and Microsoft ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server, then verify the template supports upgrading or switching to version 2503 without manual prerequisite installation.
