Configure SUSDB_log.ldf Autogrowth Size on SCCM 2012 Standalone Primary Site Server

I have configured the rest of my .ldf log files for SCCM use according to best practices by SCCM MVPs, but I have not read anywhere that states how I should go about configuring the auto growth for the WSUS database log file (susdb_log.ldf) itself.
If someone can offer some guidance here, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Thanks Torsten.
So after I run the first full sync, I can just use that value to set the initial size like you stated and then use some other value to set the growth rate? There is only about 1,000 clients in this organization and I want to get this WSUS db log file configured
prior to installing the SCCM primary site on the server. I have used Kent Agerlund's instructions on pre-configuring the SCCM 2012 R2 database and everything looks good there, but just wanted to know how to go about NOT using that 2TB default limit on the
SUSDB_log. What is a good rule of thumb to use to determine the file growth value? Like 2x or 3x the initial value size?
Thanks

What will be the IPV6 values to configure boundary?

Depending on how the clients connect use the IPv6 prefix of their 6to4, Teredo, and/ or IP-HTTPS tunnel. Just keep in mind that it could become a long list...

Issue getting WDS to Install for PXE in SCCM 2012 SP1 Primary Site

Hi All
I'm trying to get PXE boot working from our SCCM 2012 box but it never actually gets to the point of installing WDS when I check the box for PXE booting. I don't have SMSPXE.log since it never gets to that point and the distmgr.log never reaches
that point either. I've tried
uncheck pxe boot option - restart - re-check
uncheck pxe-boot - restart - install wds - leave it unconfigured - reboot - check pxe boot
uncheck pxe-boot - uninstall the vcredist 2008 packages - rebooting - install vcredist - check pxe boot option
the above with installing wds unconfigured
Below is the relevant portions of the distmgr.log file after I enable the pxe boot option no matter what manner of software is installed. We are running it on a VM in a Hyper-V 2012 enviornment in Windows 2008 SP2 x64. This issue is similar to this link
WDS PXE Secondary Site Issues but mine is on the Primary Site.

HI again, sorry for the late reply.
By saying that WDS don't get configured, I mean that when i enabled the PXE functionality, the WDS role got installed but the folder remote install wasn't created.
I ahve now actually gone back to an earlier snapshot from before I started play with the PXE settings of the VM and now nothing happens when activating PXE on the distribution point, but not even the smspxe.log is created.
The Account used is a local admin and the distribution point is located on the primary site server.
EDIT: in the events log, it states the following:SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER on computer XXX.XXXX.XXX reported: SIte comoponent Manger failed to to install on this site system.
On error (source: MsiInstaller) below:
Product Application Web Service -- Internal Error 25001. 80070490
I havent mentioned it earlier, but the Server OS is Server 2012.
I hope this might help you help me :)

SCCM 2012 R2 Secondary site server will support the DMZ Zone?

We are planning for SCCM 2012 Migration, currently we have separate Primary server in DMZ.
Kindly suggest what is the best method to deploy in the DMZ (separate primary or secondary or DP) because we have only 500 Client in DMZ.

Hi,
There is a blog talking about this error. You could try the method in the blog.
To summarise, when installing SCCM 2012 SP1 secondary site on a pre-configured SQL 2012 instance regardless which SQL edition is being used, “NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM” account needs to be given
securityadmin and sysadmin rights. If SQL Express is used, there are few additional steps need to be carried out to configure the SQL TCP connection as documented in my previous blog:

SCCM 2012 Primary Site server is piling up so huge

Hello Folks,
We recently implemented SCCM in our environment for a month ago. Its a stand-alone primary site model running DB on the primary site server itself. But, have segregated the drives for content, DB, and C drive for holding up the SCCM server related
installations. I haven't noticed the data growth on the server, as a result the C drive ran out of space yesterday and increased 40 GB more than the earlier. As of now, C drive has about 120 gb in total and there is only 25% left on whereas it had 33%
after expanding to 120 GB. When digging through the blogs, I doubted it could be BAD MIF inbox folder(screenshot attached), so went ahead and ran space check on the server, and looks like the major % of drive space is being occupied by the inbox folder and
also it is increasing day by day. I need further more directions on how this can be monitored to find out growth % and fix this.
I checked basic stuffs like clearing up profile & recycle bin data and any of this kind.
Step by step guide in detail should be more helpful in this regard. And, I hope this should be helpful for a larger SCCM admin crowd like me in the universe.
I also want to know what are the settings in SCCM console associates with these folders so that the settings can be streamlined to match the best practices (like inventory schedule for every 1 week & software inventory best practices) if at all, if we
have enabled in the implementation phase to receive fast & large results.
Thanks, V@s!m

We are seeing a stable disk size nowadays.
With that hopefully, this is a time to sum up the actions taken.
1. SCCM 2012 implemented a couple of months ago.
2. During the implementation phase, Client & Discovery settings were enabled to be quite an aggressive schedules to get good amount of results in a short period.
3. Implementation had been successfully completed and the system was running just fine until I noticed the space crunch
4. I thought it was normal and increased the disk space by 50% which got ate up in a couple of days and that's when I started suspecting about something is going wrong
5. As an interim solution, have increased the disk space by 70% and started troubleshooting the SCCM buddy.
6. Discovery settings were brought down to not to be aggressive (but this wasn't the issue) - still the issue was going on
7. Inventory settings were too brought down to be nominal (Useful :
http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1912064&seqNum=8)
8. By this time, I brought my colleague who was involved during the Implementation. We did the clean-up on server, went through the Inbox\Auth folders and were trying to figure out still what is going wrong.
9. We couldn't notice much improvement about the situation though we gave enough time for each and every fix that we applied.
10. Through some warnings and errors in the site system status, remembered that the 'Configuration.mof' was modified for testing some customized inventory classes, during the implementation phase which was getting mismatched data from lot of different clients.
- "Potential cause figured out"
11. Replaced the original Configuration.mof, and we started noticing big differences - the space was no more increasing.
12. Still we could see lot of old files in sub-folders of Inbox\Auth folder, we hope all these files would try to process for the information that we added in the 'Configuration.mof' > will fail > will go to respective 'Bad/Corrupt' folders and
eventually will be removed as per the clean-up cycle.
I will update the thread if anything goes wrong beyond this point. But, we believe it wouldn't as we have found the culprit and fixed.
**** I appreciate all your responses to help me with this situation. Happy SCCMing..!
Thanks, V@s!m

Can we assign 2 IPs for a SCCM 2012 primary site server and use 1 IP for communicating with its 2 DPs and 2nd one for communicating with its upper hierarchy CAS which is in a different .Domain

Hi,
Can we assign 2 IPs for a SCCM 2012 primary site server and use 1 Ip for communicating with its 2 DPs and 2nd one for communicating with its upper hierarchy CAS . ?
Scenario: We are building 1 SCCM 2012 primary site and 2 DPs in one domain . In future this will attach to a CAS server which is in different domain. Can we assign 2 IPs in Primary site server , one IP will use to communicate with its 2 DPs and second
IP for communicating with the CAS server which is in a different domain.?
Details:
1)Server : Windows 2012 R2 Std , VM environment .2) SCCM : SCCM 2012 R2 .3)SQL: SQL 2012 Std
Thanks
Rajesh Vasudevan

First, it's not possible. You cannot attach a primary site to an existing CAS.
Primary sites in 2012 are *not* the same as primary sites in 2007 and a CAS is 2012 is completely different from a central primary site in 2007.
CASes cannot manage clients. Also, primary sites are *not* used for delegation in 2012. As Torsten points out, multiple primary sites are used for scale-out (in terms of client count) only. Placing primary sites for different organizational units provides
no functional differences but does add complexity, latency, and additional failure points.
Thus, as the others have pointed out, your premise for doing this is completely incorrect. What are your actual business goals?
As for the IP Addressing, that depends upon your networking infrastructure. There is no way to configure ConfigMgr to use different interfaces for different types of traffic. You could potentially manipulate the routing tables in Windows but that's asking
for trouble IMO.

Using a custom certificate store for SCCM 2012 clients and primary site server

I have read what seems to be all the pki related documentation out there for SCCM 2012. I have a PKI infrastructure up and running issueing certificates with an offline root through group policy autoenrollment. The problem that i'm faced with is we are migrating
from SCCM 2007 that was in native mode and we chose not to use the CA that we used for the old SCCM environment. When the clients attempt to communicate with the M.P. it runs through all of the different certificates and adds a tremendous amount of overhead
to the M.P. We will have ten's of thousands of clients by migration end. Could someone please point me to a document that goes over how to leverage a custom certificate store that I could then tell the new 2012 environment to use? I know that it's in there,
I've seen it in the console. The setup is one primary site server with SQL on box and the pki I just mentioned as well as the old 2007 environment that is still live.
I read that you can try and use SAN as a method of identifying the new certs but I haven't found a good document covering exactly how that works. Any info you could provide I would be very grateful for. Thanks.

Jason, thank you for your reply. I'm getting the impression that you have never been in the situation where you had to deal with 2 different PKI environments. Let me state that I understand what your saying about trust. We have to configure the trusted root
CA via GPO. That simply isn't enough, and I have a valid example to backup this claim. When the new clients got the advertisement and began the ccmsetup process I used the /pki switch among others. What the client end up doing was selecting a certificate that
had the longest validity period which was issued by our old CA. It checked the authentication chain, found it to be valid and selected it for communication. At that point the installation failed, period, no caveats as you say. The reason the install failed
because the new PKI infrastructure is integrated into the new environment, and the old is not. So when you said " that
are trusted and they can use *any* cert that is trusted because at the end of the day, there is no
difference between two valid certs that have the same purpose as long as they are trusted. "
that is not correct. Both certs are trusted, and use the same certificate template, but only one certificate would allow the install to complete successfully.
Once I started using the CCMCERTISSUERS
switch the client install went swimmingly. The only reason I'm still debating this point is because someone might read this thread see your comments and assume "well I've got my new PKI configured as a trusted root CA, I should be all set" and their
deployment will fail, just as my pilot did.
About Intune I'm looking forward to doing a POC in the lab i built with my Note 3. I'm hoping it goes well as I really want to have our MDM migrated into ConfigMgr... I think the
biggest obstacle outside of selling it to management will be the actual device migration from the current MDM solution. From what I understand of the enrollment process manual install and config is the only path forward.
Thanks Jason for your post and discussion.

Replacing the primary site server, SCCM 2012 R2

Hi,
Setup is currently SCCM 2012 R2 with the primary site server on Windows 2008 R2 on a Hyper-V VM with a separate physical SQL server on 2008 R2 (Windows and SQL). I'm not making any changes to the SQL server at this stage.
I want to completely replace the primary site server VM completely with a brand new VM using Windows 2012 R2.
I was looking to run the SCCM setup and using the Expand an existing stand-alone primary into a hierarchy option but it wont let me do that due to "The site code you specified should not be the same as the primary site's site code".
So seems this Expand an existing option isn't the right option for me?
Do I just add the new server in the SCCM console and add all roles and test and then delete the roles from the old server?
Thanks
EDIT: I have 7 Secondary sites, so I dont want to just start over by doing some sort of backup and restore to the new server unless someone can tell me that wont break my hierarchy.

a backup and recovery is the correct way to do this, but there are a few things you should keep in mind.
Do a backup of your current environment and shut everything down.
install new vm, ensure the configuration is identical, (dns, hostname, etc...); install the same software and pre-requisites,
do a recovery
check the following links on how to do a backup and restore:

Hi Guys
Exact same problem as described above:
Been told to install SQL Express manually first, but even after that, we continued to get the same problem.
The SQL Communication between the 2 sites doesn't seem to work.
I noticed that the Primary's SQL Security Account doesn't get created on Primary DB, in the Database replication the link has not yet been created either.
The "Exec spDrsSendSubscriptionInvalid 'Secondary 3 digit site code','Primary 3 digit site code','configuration data'" worked on 1 Secondary, but fails on all the rest.
Uninstalling/Installing the Secondary doesn't work either.

I am going to install SCCM 2012 and its SQL database on a single physical server. This is going to be a single primary site server. The default SQL instance will be dedicated to SCCM 2012 with no other named instances to be added on the SQL server down
the road.
During the WSUS server role installation, there is the Database Options page asking for using (1) Windows Internal Database, (2) existing db server on this computer, or (3) an external db server.
Since SCCM 2012 doesn't share db instance with others, how should I handle the WSUS db that's going to be hosted on the same SCCM/SQL physical server? Do I really need to create a separate SQL instance just for the WSUS db?
Thanks and regards.

Even though you can do it, it is the best practice to have SCCM 2012 and WSUS installed on separate instances.

When the Configuration Manager and WSUS databases use the same SQL Server and share the same instance of SQL Server, you cannot easily determine the resource usage between the two applications. When you use a different SQL Server instance
for Configuration Manager and WSUS, it is easier to troubleshoot and diagnose resource usage issues that might occur for each application.

Running WMI repair script on SCCM 2012 primary site server

Hi,
running WMI rebuilding repository script on SCCM 2012 primary site server. Any idea what kind of issue on SCCM environment it will cause.

Gah! did you already do so? I hope your resume is up to date. As to what kind of issues: it'll break everything, and nothing will ever work right ever again. Ever. Again.

SCCM CAS & Primary Site Server - Same SQL Database and Reporting Instance

Hi Fellows,
I need to know whether, for SCCM CAS, a dedicated/seperate SQL instance for SCCM CAS a mendatory requirement or recommendation?
Or we can use the same SQL instance used by Primary Site Server?
J.A

There no technical reason not to have the CAS and Primary database in separate instances of the same remote SQL server. However if you are going to deploy a CAS that would suggest a very large number of clients and a very busy infrastructure. In that case
I would RECOMMEND separate SQL servers.
This is a good guide for SQL sizing (but it is only a guide)

SCCM - Uninstalling Primary site server

Hi All,
After we uninstall a primary site server from SCCM architecture, are there any changes that we need to make in AD, so that there should be no junk entry objects in AD that are related to this primary site server.
Rgs,

Hi,
Clear up all the objects in System\System Management that points to the Primary site you are uninstalling and it roles.

Installation of SCCM 2012 R2 and SQL Server 2014 error

Hello All,
I am attempting to setup SQL Server 2014 and SCCM 2012 R2 but I keep running into an error stating that "Configuration Manager requires Microsoft SQL Server
2008 SP2 w/ CU9........ all the way up to Microsoft SQL Server 2012 with CU2 or higher." I am using all evaluation versions for this configuration as we are looking to test and evaluate the products. I was trying it with SQL 2014 because I was running
into the same error with SQL 2012 and according to "http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2015/03/30/updated-sc2012-configmgr-sp1-and-sc2012r2-configmgr-support-sql-server-2014.aspx" SQL
2014 is supported with SCCM 2012 R2. SQL is installed locally on the same box.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tucker
Update: When running the Pre-Req check these are some of the failed returns.....
SQL Server Edition: Failed: Configuration Manager primary site and central administration site don't support SQL Server Express Edition
Not sure why it is recognizing SQL Express as this is a new machine.
SQL Server service running account: Failed: The logon account for the SQL Server service cannot be a local user account, NT SERVICE\<sql service name> or LOCAL SERVICE. You must configure
the SQL Server service to use a valid domain account, NETWORK SERVICE, or LOCAL SYSTEM.
For the SQL Service I am using a domain account created specifically for this.

This has nothing to do with moving or restoring. The kb article says "This hotfix provides updated versions of the setup files and enables new installations
of the System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager site database role and the System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP1 site database role in Microsoft SQL Server 2014"

SCCM 2012 R2 CU4 - Site Backup Task failed

Hi, I set up a Site Maintenance Task for Backup our Primary Site, but every time I run this task it fail with the following message:
Error: Backup folder \\backupserver\backupshare$ does not exist or backup service does not have permission to access the folder.
I tried to use "erveryone" in share permissions and NTFS Permissions with Full Control and then the Backup works! ... I tried to remove the everyone from NTFS completely then the Backup also still works .. but when I remove everyone from the share
permissions (and grant the SCCM Site Server and SQL Server Computer Accounts the Full Control Permission) the backup fails..
so it seems to me that I have a permission issue ... what is the correct Permission setup for UNC Backup? (Share and NTFS Permissions) ... I tried to give the SCCM Server and SQL Server Computer and SQL Cluster Account Full Control without success...)
kind regards
Klaus

"The computer account of the site server and the computer account of the SQL Server, if SQL Server is installed on another computer, must have
Write NTFS and share permissions to the shared network folder."
