    Trying to install the update to install sccm2012
    Error
    There are no SQL server instance or shared feature that can be update on this computer.

    Hello,
    You need CU2 for SQL Server 2012 RTM or later to be able to install SSCM 2012. You can install SP1 for SQL Server 2012 too.
    CU2 can be downloaded from the following link:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2703275/en-us
    When you click on the “Hotfix Download Available” button, make sure you make a click on the “"Show hotfixes for all platforms and languages
    (8) " link, then download and install the following file:
    SQLServer2012_RTM_CU2_2703275_11_0_2325_x64

  • How to uninstall/remove security update for SQL Server 2012

    My requirement is to uninstall/remove security update for SQL
    Server 2012 Service Pack 1 only. so are these below steps are correct or do I need to take any extra precaution for uninstallation?
    Go to Control panelàProgramsà
    Programs and FeaturesàInstalled Updrtes, right click on update and uninstall
    As per my knowledge in SQL Server 2005, we cannot uninstall a service pack. we have to uninstall SQL Server 2005 completely, and reinstall SQL Server 2005 with previous service
    packs and updates. but Starting SQL Server 2008, we can uninstall a service pack using Control Panel.

  • Security Update for SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2 (KB2977320)

    So i have been trying to install this update on one of our servers since it is showing up on our MBSA scans but it has been failing on one of our machines with the error code: 0x80070643
    I downloaded the update and tired to install it manually. The installer returned: There are no SQL Server instances or shared features that can be updated on this computer. If that was true then why is SCCM still pushing the update to the machine and why
    is the MBSA showing that it needs the update? Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

    Hi David,
    Based on my understanding, the error code: 0x80070643 was thrown out when you install KB2977320 with MBSA. And installation also failed when you download and install update manually.
    Regarding the error code: 0x80070643, it can be caused if the MSI software update registration has become corrupted, or if the .NET Framework installation on the computer has become corrupted. To fix this issue, we can follow these methods:
    Fix MSI software update registration corruption issues
    Repair the .Net Framework
    Uninstall and reinstall the .Net Framework
    For more information, please refer to this link:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976982.
    Besides, the security update is released for SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2, please check the version of SQL Server you are using. About how to check the SQL Server version, please refer to this article: How to tell what SQL Server version you are running
    (http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1140/how-to-tell-what-sql-server-version-you-are-running/). Then please download the Security Update for SQL
    Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2 from this link (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43957), and retry install it manually.

  • WSUS service pack updates for SQL Server 2008 R2

    Hello, how do we configure WSUS for SQL Server Service Packs? One problem we have is that we do not see SQL server 2008 R2 SP2 available as a download from our WSUS server and this is when SQL SP1 is installed. Now I can apply these service packs manually
    but when we have 100's of virtual machines with different versions and editions of SQL this task can be quite daunting. Suggestions please?
    RFDZ12

    from memory, SQL service packs and CUs are not released via WSUS.
    This article is a good reference for (products other than Windows) for what has been released via WSUS:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsserver/bb456965
    The equivalent article for Windows releases, is
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894199
    Or, you can check the MU catalog (which doesn't necessarily mean the update is available via WSUS, but if the update you seek in is the MU catalog, you can usually import it into your WSUS)
    http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/
    some updates for products are not able to be released via WSUS, for various reasons, and so in those cases, you need a different deployment solution.

  • Backup for SQL 2008R2 database taking extremely long!

    Runnig DPM SP1 on hostserver  backing up over to a different network. Only failing for SQL 2008 r2, where it takes a very very long time. It takes so many hours, that the job even laps its own self. Is  there any other factors that can influence
    this, leaving network, disk I/O and size of database on the side? Anyone with same problem? any solutions? Pretty desperate here. Thanks in advance!

    Hello Samir,
    Volume does not have any encryption or dedup. The actual first backup took over 20 hours. This is with dpm creating the allocated the volume for the backup. And then every backup sycronisation took about 7-8 hours. SQL database is about 1.3 TB. I understand
    this big, but still they has to be another reason to why it would take way long.
    thanks in advance!

  • How to run Windows update for Win XP SP3 using Firefox

    My desktop PC is running windows XP with SP3. My spouse uses IE 8 for her browser. I use Firefox Version 24. for my browser. Previously, whenever we ran MS or Windows update it starts IE and runs fine. IE 8 has blown up and no longer works (Runtime Errors). I tried to go to the Windows update website using Firefox and it came back and told me that I had to use IE to run Win update on an XP system. Is this true? I don't want to use IE at all. Is there a way to use Firefox to run Windows or MS update on my Win XP system? Thank you.

    Thanks for your help. That is not what I wanted to hear so I will have to try to get IE 8 working again. How do other folks do updates? Does this mean that IE is absolutely necessary to maintain your windows system? Is this true for the newer versions of Windows, 7 or 8?
