MS System Center Configuration Manager 2013

We have two sites, say:   Chicago & NY.
These two sites are exact replicas of each other.

What would be the best way to build a SCCM 2013 infrastructure?

I do believe all roles will be on one server.

I know there is a primary & secondary site, and the secondary site is for slow connections.
We do not have problems with slow connections.  We have a point-to-point between each site.

Could I build out a primary & primary and then have SQL clustering for the DB?

Let me know what would be best practice to build this out.

I am completely new at SCCM 2013.

I would like it if one sites goes then SCCM in the other site takes over.

thx

Is it SCCM 2012 or 2013 ?
There is no need for SCCM to run non stop. In windows 2000 pro, there was no method to do a remote control so it was different.

If you have a sccm that can be brought up within 1 hour then you are quite safe apart from the remote control thing. Putting your SCCM on vmware would make it easier.

What is the number of devices in your plan?

For high availability I think you need 2 primary site and one central site to manage the database replication between 2 sites, check the following guide for more information:

For monitoring you need Microsoft System Center 2012 Operation Manager !!!
