Is there a way to trick MS Service Manager 2012 to use SQL Server 2014 when installing it?

 I recently set up a virtual Lab on my laptop. I dont have much resources on my laptop and can only have around 5 servers. the problem is that i already set up SQL Server 2014 standalone and configured all of my services to use that server which works
fine. however when i try to install MS Service Manager 2012 it throws "SQL has to be either 2012 or 2008" error ..
is there a way for me to trick the Registry so Service Manager will install?
Thank you

I don't know a trick to install SCSM 2012 on a SQL Server 2014. But maybe you can use a SQL Server 2012 for installation temporary and move the db after installation is done to your SQL Server 2014?
Moving the Service Manager and DW Databases
Might be worth a try. But it's definitely not recommended for a productive environment!

  • System Center Operations Manager 2012 R2 and SQL Server 2014 Reporting Services

    I was able to connect SCOM12 to SQL14, however when I attempted to install Reporting Service in SCOM12 the pull down box was blank.
    I installed reporting services on the same instance of SystemCenter, when that didn't work I tried creating a new instance that only included SSRS; remote registry is also running. The drop-down box within the SCOM installer is blank.
    Is this an issue with reporting between SC12 and SQL14, yes I understand documentation says only sql server 2012 is supported, however I've seen many threads with SCOM12 and SQL12 that are having the same issues.
    Is there something I may be missing, or do I have to install SQL12 and go through the process again?

    Hi,
    As far as I know, the SCOM reporting server role should be installed on the same server where SQL reporting service installed.

  • Service Manager 2012 R2 report libraries don't deploy

    So I've got a fresh install of Service Manager 2012 R2 with SQL Server '08 R2 in the 4 server layout, everything on Hyper-V. My issue is this: after registering the data warehouse, everything appears to function normally, the MPSyncJob completes its first
    pass and other jobs show up in the list but the reports section of the management console is never populated. All of the management packs deploy just fine except for the report libraries and there is no indication/logs of issues on any of the servers. I've
    gone through the manual setup setups for SSRS several times with no change in results. This is the 4th full reinstall of Service Manager with the same result.
    Any thoughts? Is there any way to tell whether or not SSRS is actually functioning as intended? Are there any special database permissions that need to be configured for the DW reports service account (I have read all set)?

    here is the SCSM setup wizard log (part of it)
    this is what I have found "Could not find WCS portal web site name in setup registry!"
    the web portal was installed and sharepoint was never installed then moved to a different server..
    how do I remove the self-service portal and web parts of service manager with out removing the management server. (having to back up MPs and DBs and restoring them)

  • Trying to make Reporting Services Configuration Manager work. Or, SQL Server Reporting Services.

    Under Start > Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2008, I have the following:
    SQL Server Management Studio
    Configuration Tools
    Integration Services
    Import and Export Data
    Under Configuration Tools, I have the following:
    SQL Server Installation Center
    SQL Server Configuration Manager
    SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting
    Reporting Services Configuration Manager
    I tried to enable Reporting Services through 'Reporting Services Configuration Manager' but I don't seem to have much control from this view.  I see two boxes, one named Server Name (and it shows my server name) and the other is named Report Servicer Instance (and this is grayed out).  If I click on the Find box next to Server Name, I get this message:
    Report Server WMI Provider Error: Invalid Namespace
    Details
    Invalid Namespace
    To get the Server Name I right-clicked SQL Server > Properties > General
    Any ideas on how to make Reporting Services Configuration Manager work?  Or, can you please give me more details on how to access "System control" => "Services"?  I'm not seeing it anywhere and I'm not seeing any way to find "Sql Server Reporting Services".  Basically, I'm trying to activate my SQL Server Reporting Services.
    I am using SQL Server 2008 Express Management Studio.  Is SQL Server Reporting Services included in Express Management Studio?  I read, online, that it is, but I can't find it anywhere.
    Thanks again!

    Thanks Jerry Nee!!  This may be exactly what I’m looking for!  I went to this link:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=B5D1B8C3-FDA5-4508-B0D0-1311D670E336&displaylang=en#filelist  
    At the top of the page it says, ‘Microsoft® SQL Server® 2008 Express with Advanced Services’, which seems like this is what I’m looking for, so I downloaded the file named ‘SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe’
    Then, I cut that from my desktop and pasted it in my C-drive and I get a message that says, ‘this folder already contains a file named ‘SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe’, would you like to replace the existing file?’
    I’m thinking…what the heck?  Do I already have this thing?  If so, why can’t I see SQL Server Reporting Services?  Maybe I have it now, and I just don’t know how to access the reporting Services features…
    Couple quick questions:
    What’s the difference b/w these two files: 
    ‘SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.exe’ and ‘SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe’? 
    Also, my current version of SSMS, Help > About shows this:
    Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
    10.0.1600.22 ((SQL_PreRelease).080709-1414 )

    Should Server Reporting Services be included in this version?  I think so!!!
    Under Start > Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2008 > Configuration Tools > Reporting Services Configuration Manager, I see this:
    Connect to a report server instance:
    Server Name: 
    Report Server Instance: 
    My server name is ‘'EXCEL-4J2W8KYNP', which I got from Control Panel > System Properties > Computer Name > Full Computer Name;
    However, when I put that server name in the box, and hit ‘Find’ I get this message: ‘Report Server WMI Provider error’ Invalid namespace
    Details: Invalid Namespace.
    I have no idea what this means…
    Thanks for everything!

  • Is there any way to launch Shared Services in command prompt for migration?

    Hi All,
    We are on 11.1.1.1.3 Is there any way to launch Shared Services in command prompt for migration purposes? The purpose is we need to automate the migration process from Dev to Prod. Currently we are exporting artifacts by using LCM in shared service by file management and then exporting that folder to prod server and then importing by using LCM. So we need to automate the whole process.
    So is there any way we can launch shared services/LCM in command prompt to launch the migration for export/import artifacts?
    Any suggestions will be great help.

    Did you see the bit in the documentation called "Creating Migration Definitions"?
    See: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epm_lifecycle_management/ch06s03s01.htm
    Also, if you follow this link, the docs explain how to (sort of) generate the xml:

  • Is there a way for converting WCF service into Azure Cloud Service without dealing with project files.

    Here is my situation.
    We provide Platform and SDK to other people where they can build WCF services and deploy that on site. We have a  many ISVs who has built wcf services, packaged them and ship them.
    Packaging consist of couple of manifest file and .dll file that make up wcf service. Now we want to go on cloud with our platform.
    Long story short - I have all the dlls for my wcf service but no project file.
    Is there a way to generate cloud service package from this dll files?

    Hi,
    You can't simply package your dlls and deploy it as a azure cloud service deployment package - you will need to have your project as well as service definition file which will define your role and instances.
    You can read more about packaging an Application by Using the CSPack Command-Line Tool here -http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/gg433133.aspx
    another way to go to cloud platform is by making use of azure web sites, however you will still need your service files do deploy.
    If you have the dlls and the service files with you - then you can simply use the web site publish wizard and deploy to azure web site.
    Read more about it here - http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-deploy/

  • Is there a way to make sure my MBP doesn't use a particular resolution or ?

    This may be a stupid question. I am hooking my MBP to my lcd tv. When I first connected the television, my tv displayed the message "mode not supported". Having played a little at this I simply went to my display preferences and looked at what resolution was running to my tv. (I have my display preferences in the toolbar) It was running 1920x1080 at 60Hz and right above that there was another 1920x1080 at 60Hz so I clicked on that and my external display lit right up. (Turns out the second resolution's refresh rate is actually 59.9Hz) So no problem right? Well I use this set up as sort of a media center so I like to run my MBP with its lid closed. When I close the lid, and rewake the MBP, my television gives me the message "mode not supported". So there is a signal but the tv can't display it. This leads me to believe that when I close the lid on my MBP it decides to run at the 60Hz as opposed to the functional 59.9Hz. The problem is I can't see the display to change the resolution or refresh rate. Is there a way to make sure my MBP doesn't use a particular resolution or refresh rate? I have tried changing it before I close the lid. I have tried it in mirrored display mode. Nothing works so far. Please Help!

    Not really. In the Displays preferences you can only check the option to show supported resolutions, but that only will be present with another display connected (I believe.) On laptops it isn't an option, obviously, but it may be present once you connect an external display.
    You might try using the shareware utility SwitchResX - VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

  • Is there any way to export IT Resource data from OIM using the export tool?

    Hello,
    we are trying to migrate an OIM development environment to a preproduction environment and we need to migrate more than 400 IT Resources. We have exported some IT Resources and when we imported them in the preproduction environment their data was not migrated. Is there any way to export IT Resource data from OIM using the export tool? Or is there any other way to do this without doing it by hand?
    Thank you for your help
    Kind Regards

    Well , OIM doesnot provide any such facility to export ITResource data along with ITResource .
    Directly updating the DB could be an option ..
    Thanks

  • Is there a way to find out, whether the student or the full version is currently installed?

    Hi everyone!
    First of all: Merry Christmas!
    A longer text with some background information is following. My question will be at the bottom.
    My computer is a good boy and it didn't disappoint me for quite a while now.
    I had once installed the student version (german) of CS3 extended on this one.
    Then, after having removed the student version some time later when needed, I have re-installed the full version.
    This time, however, it was in english and it wasn't the extended version either.
    After the software has accepted my serial id, I was quite content. It felt much better in english and I was able to use photoshop to the fullest once again.
    Today, I have gotten my hands on the upgrade version to CS5 (again in english and not extended, but that's all I need).
    After the installation guide has told me, that there are no programmes installed which are compatible to the upgrade, I was confused.
    I have realised that my current CS3 version was still the extended one, even though it was in english and it wasn't the student version either (at least, that's what I believe, because there were no "activate"/"deactivate" buttons in the help menu where it used to be in the german student version before).
    So while doing an upgrade to CS5, I had to chose CS3 extended from the list and had to type in the old student's version serial number.
    Nothing else worked, even though I've tried to chose the CS3 version in combination with the other serial number, which belong to the full version both.
    Now to my question:
    Is there a way to find out, whether the student or the full version is currently installed?
    (Other than looking at the box of course, that would be quite trivial. I am worried if the installation guide hasn't removed all components thoroughly.)
    Thanks in advance,
    Happy holidays,
    Jeff

    Thanks for the reply!
    That's what I thought as well. However, that wasn't the case. Whether it's the educational or the full version, both splash screens looked the same.
    At least for the CS3 version.I know how I was quite confused about that in the past when I'd realised that.
    The CS5 splash screen didn't say anything about a student version, but I was able to deactivate the application. I thought this was possible for the student version only.
    I've tried using the adobe clean program like suggested, but that didn't work either. The installation guide of CS5 still didn't bother asking for an older version.
    I.e.: It still used the educational serial number from before.
    After reinstalling windows on my pc, the installation guide finally wanted to know about my CS3 again.
    However, it told me, that the serial number of the full version in combination with CS3 is not valid. Just like it did before.
    Maybe it's because the full version was made in the USA and the CS5 upgrade version was made in Austria - Ireland?
    That would be really frustrating.

  • Is there a way to reduce the size of a final PDF created for print when saving a file?

    Is there a way to reduce the size of a final PDF created for print when saving in any software (especially illustrator)? I don't want any quality to decrease at the same time. Thanks!

    Personally I would avoid optimizing the PDF's via Adobe Acrobat Pro unless you understand what you are removing from the PDF; having said that, it is the most effective way to reduce the file-size in the right hands.
    If I am sending out layouts for commercial print I change my default Print / Export setting from Standard to PDF/A-1b:2005 (CMYK). This will resolve a lot of common print problems for print-ready documents and it should embed your fonts and flatten transparencies etc.
    If your document is still too large you run an Audit Space Usage using Adobe Acrobat Pro. In the left pane enable 'Content' and then hit the button in the top left corner of the Content Pane and choose Audit Space Usage.

  • Is there a way to password protect certain apps from being used? Example I don't want my child to access my apps while he's using his on the iPad

    Is there a way to password protect certain apps from being used? Example I don't want my child to access my apps while he's using his on the iPad. I don't want to lock him out of the iPad. Let him use Angry birds, but not Sims or Games not appropriate for him that I play.

    Sorry, but it is not possible to restrict use of specific apps other that the few restrictions provided in the Restrictions settings, not unless the app itself provides some sort of lock. If you don't want your child playing certain games, the only answer is to not load them on the iPad he uses.
