Disk Layout of a secondary site server

I see the disk layout of a CAS and primary with an on-box SQL instance, raid 10, separate mdf and ldf files. What are you guys doing with your secondary install? Are you installing all of the SQL files onto a single drive separate from the OS or are you
splitting our the mdf and ldf like you would for a full SQL instance. Let's say the secondary will support the maximum number of clients, so the load will be heavy.

Even a heavy load on a fully loaded secondary is nothing compared to what a primary site is expected to handle. The SQL data on a secondary is a very small subset of the overall site's DB and if effectively read-only (from the client's perspective at least).
I honestly wouldn't/don't worry about it all if you have current server class-hardware.

  • Uninstalling Secondary Site Server through SW Delivery fails

    We have migrated to SCCM2012
    and now need to uninstall our
    SCCM 2007 Secondary Siteserver.
    Since we have 300 Secondary Site Server
    in the Hirarchy, the uninstall
    of the software must be distributed.
    We have to create a task sequence,
    in which the following steps are
    performed:
    Put the server in the SCOM
    Maintenance Mode
    Stop SCCM services SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER
    and SMS_EXECUTIVE
    Uninstalling the Secondary Siteserver with the
    Command "{install path} \setup.exe /deinstall"
    Cleanup of folders and files that are left
    Restarting the Server
    Take server out of the SCOM
    Maintenance Mode
    The uninstallation works well on all Windows Server 2008 R2 Server. But not on the Windows Server 2003. There we get errors "Failed to open key Software\Microsoft\SMS\47006C006F00620061006C005C007B00350031004100300031003600420036002D0046003000440045002D0034003700350032002D0042003900370043002D003500340045003600460033003800360041003900310032007D00\SMSTS"
    and "MP name must be set in an environment variable" and "Fatal error is returned in execution of the action (Uninstall Secondary Site). The system cannot find the file specified. (Error: 80070002; Source: Windows)".
    After this errors, the Task Sequence Deployment aborts.
    Has anybody a solution for this situation?
    Here is the SMSTS.Log

    Hi,
    When removing a secondary site using the Delete Secondary Site Wizard, you must choose whether to delete or uninstall the secondary
    site:
    Deleting the site will delete all information about the site and its resources from the Configuration Manager site database at its
    parent site, but it will leave the Configuration Manager secondary site installed on the secondary site computer. Select this option if you have already manually uninstalled the secondary site using Configuration Manager Setup at the secondary site computer.
    When Configuration Manager 2007 sites are deleted, the deleted site information is only deleted from the deleted site's direct parent site. Site deletion
    information is not propagated up the hierarchy to grandparent sites. In order to delete the site from the site database at sites above the deleted site's direct parent site, the hierarchy maintenance tool (Preinst.exe) must be run on every primary site above
    the deleted site's parent primary site using the command Preinst /delsite. For more information about the hierarchy maintenance tool, see
    Hierarchy Maintenance Tool (Preinst.exe).
    Refer to:
    How to Remove a Secondary Site Using the Configuration Manager Console
    Thanks, Prabha G

  • Replacing Secondary Site server with a new oneA

    I have Secondary site running on Windows 2008 R2, but the server has some issue and i need to install a new secondary server.
    The location is remote and Bandwidth a concern so i do not want all the packages to go over to the new Secondary Site /DP 
    Since the current Secondary site server is still alive , i want to take as much as from it .
    Anyone has some suggestion on how i could accomplish this.

    There's no built in way to do this in 2007; however, you should be able to use the preload package tool:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/configurationmgr/archive/2009/05/07/configmgr-2007-the-preload-package-tool-preloadpkgonsite-exe-explained.aspx . Using this tool, you can copy the pick files from the existing secondary to the new secondary site server.

  • SCEP definitions do not update on Secondary site server

    Issue:  Win 2008R2 server - Secondary site server - SCEP is installed, but it cannot find/download/install any virus definitions.  When attempting to hit "update" within the SCEP console, it returns no results.  When attempting to
    check online for Win Updates via control panel, no virus def updates are found (but 11 different updates are found for .NET and other things).
    The error that is thrown in the Windows Updates log when attempting to update through the SCEP console is Error: 0x80248014. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2832355/en-us  Although this
    applies to Windows 8, I still checked the settings per the article.  My settings check out okay.
    No error is thrown when attempting to check for updates via Windows Update in the control panel.  It finds 11 available updates (none of which are SCEP related), and displays them properly.
    This server has the CCM2012 client installed, and the Anti-Malware policy has been successfully applied.  We have a separate Anti-Malware policy that is applied only to our SCCM site servers.  The policy indicates that all virus defs are to be
    obtained from Microsoft online Update.  Our primary site server does not display this problem.  It is updating automatically with no issues.
    It is possible to manually download and apply the latest virus definitions by visiting the MS virus defs site and running the manual update installer.  I have only done this to ensure that the virus defs are somewhat current.
    Steps taken:  I have removed SCEP and re-installed it.  I have also attempted the Windows Update "Fix-it" found here.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058
    Error 0x80248014 persists when attempting an update through the SCEP console, and no SCEP related updates are found by Microsoft online Update.
    Any suggestions on what I might try next?

    Thank you for the reply.
    Well, the issue with this secondary site server isn't 100% fixed, but your line of questions pushed me in a direction that allowed me to put a Band-Aid on it.  That said, it is updating the virus defs - although not exactly as it should be.  But,
    this is good enough for me now.
    To answer some of your questions that seem relevant.  This is a fairly new SCCM setup. Our implementation of SCCM currently is not configured to handle any Software Updates yet.  We still rely on a separate WSUS server in our environment for all
    WinUpdates (including SCEP/FEP).  With that in mind, the Anti-Malware policy that is applied to both SCCM servers use the following 2 locations in order for obtaining SCEP updates:
    1) MS online Updates  2)WSUS
    As mentioned previously, the secondary site never detected updates via SCEP console or WinUpdates via Control Panel.  But this did not explain why it could not retrieve from WSUS.
    A quick look at our WSUS setup shows that auto-approval is configured for all of our workstations, but not our servers.  I corrected this within WSUS - Forced GPUpdate on the site server - ran wuauclt /detectnow on the site server - Now, the virus defs
    were found and could be installed.  (I'll have to wait a little while to see if it continues to update automatically as it should)
    So, as I mentioned above - the big problem of not updating at all is corrected, however the issue still remains "why are no updates found from MS Updates online?"
    At this point - I don't know, but as long as it updates in some fashion, I'm good with that.

  • 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:

  • Site Code for SCCM Clients installed from Secondary Site Server

    Hello,
    We have started the implementation of SCCM 2012 R2 at our network. We have setup a Primary site (JFO) server & pushed out the installation of SCCM clients to the local subnet. Things went fine.
    We have installed a Secondary site (ATC) at a remote network. We have tested client installation in the installation wizard we specify to install the client from the Secondary server. When SCCM client installed from the Secondary server, the site
    code that appears on the client in the control panel->Configuration Manager client settings is the site code of the primary site and not the secondary site.
    Is this behavior is normal

    Ultimately, secondary sites do *not* manage clients and so will never be assigned to the secondary site. However, do note that resources in the console that represent systems that do not have the client agent may show the site code of the secondary site
    if they fall within a boundary group associated with that secondary site. This is done so that client push can be initiated from the correct site. More gory details at http://blog.configmgrftw.com/secondary-sites-and-boundary-groups/

    Hi would raid mirror be good enough support configuration on single server run both essentials server 2012  and  exchange 2013  new to exchange look for input and suggestions

    1) Boot Hyper-V from cheap SATA or even USB stick (see link below). No point in wasting SSD for that. Completely agree with Eric. See:
    Run Hyper-V from USB Flash
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj733589.aspx
    2) Don't use RAID controllers in RAID mode rather (as you already got them) stick with HBA mode passing disks AS IS, add some more SSDs and configure Storage Spaces in RAID10 equivalent mode and use SSDs as a flash cache. See:
    Storage Spaces Overview
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831739.aspx
    Because having single pool touching all spindles would provide you better IOPS compared to creating "islands of storage" that are waste or performance and hell of management.
    3) Come up with IOPS requirements for your workload (no idea from above) keeping in mind RAID10 provides ALL IOPS for reads and half IOPS for writes (because of mirroring). So as single SATA can do maybe 120-150 IOPS and single SAS can do up to 200 (you
    don't provide any model names so we have to guess) you may calculate how many IOPS your config would give away in a best and worst case scenario (write back cache from above will help but you always need to come from a WORST case). See calculator link below.
    IOPS Calculator
    http://www.wmarow.com/strcalc/
    Hope this helped a bit :)

  • Procedure performing a "Retry Secondary Site" Operation in SCCM 2012 R2 Secondary Server

    Dear Brother,
    My SCCM 2012 R2 Secondary Site Server, unfortunately crashed and required to be restored, doing this I end up performing a "Retry Secondary Site Operation.
    One by one I am clearing out the errors but there are few remaining errors on the prerequisite checks:
    1.[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.
    Actions Done: SQL Related Services use Logon As Domain Account "Microsoft-Domain\BillAdmin" , but still the above message still appears in the logs.
    Actions Done: None
    2.[Failed]:The collation of the site database does not match the collation of the parent site's database.  All sites in a hierarchy must use the same database collation.
    3.[Failed]:The site server might be unable to publish to Active Directory. The computer account for the site server must have Full Control permissions to the System Management container in its Active Directory domain. You can ignore this warning if you have
    manually verified these permissions. For more information about your options to configure required permissions, see
    http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=233190.
    Actions Done: None, as this machine is previously a working Secondary site for 1 Year already. So I do not suspect anything from the current related configuration.
    4.[Failed]: Either the user account running Configuration Manager Setup does not have sysadmin SQL Server role permissions on the SQL Server instance selected for site database installation, or the SQL Server instance could not be contacted to verify permissions.
    Setup cannot continue.
    Action Taken:  Domain Account "Microsoft-Domain\BillAdmin" has a
    Sysadmin roles and actually all the check boxes are chosen to acquire all SQL account roles"

  • Secondary Site in DMZ on Workgroup Server

    Hi Guys,
    I have a simple question.
    Is it possible to install the role secondary site server on a server in the DMZ which is only in a workgroup (no AD!) or is AD a prerequisites for the installation?
    Greetings Chris

    That's on possible solution but one that I would never implement.
    The common solution is to put an HTTPS enabled MP (and DP and SUP) in the DMZ to control MP affinity and essentially force the DMZ clients to use the HTTPS MP. This doesn't get rid of the requirement for this site system (as a single site system could easily
    hold all three roles) to be domain joined though.

  • How Can I Remove a Secondary Site When The Server no Longer Exists?

    This organisation deployed a new SCCM site and then decommissioned the server before successfully removing either the site or the server/roles.
    I tried to force the removal of the site which failed:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\bin\X64\00000409>preinst.exe /delsite xxx
    Microsoft System Center 2012 Configuration Manager v5.00 (Build 7804)
    Copyright (C) 2011 Microsoft Corp.
    Cannot find site [xxx] in the site control data in the database. Checking in ServerData in the database.
    Failed to execute SQL query.
    The secondary site is showing in the console as 'deleting'.
    Can anyone advise the best way to proceed?
    Thanks.

    I had the same issue and this is what they sent me... I used it and it worked for me.
    1.       Please follow these steps to manually delete the
    Secondary Site from the Secondary site server
    2.       We also used the PREINST tool to remove the pending jobs.
    3.       On the ConfigMgr primary site (parent) computer, click Start, and then click Run.
    4.       Type cmd in the Open box, and then click OK.
    5.       At the command prompt, type cd\, and then press the ENTER key.
    6.       Type cd sms\bin\i386\00000409, and then press the ENTER key.
    7.       To remove any pending or active jobs to a site, type Preinst /DELJOB SiteCode , and then press the ENTER key.
    8.       We deleted the Secondary Site from the console of parent  site.
    9.       We removed the Sender Addresses from the Configuration Manager console, as explained below.
    10.   Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Systems Management Server, and then click ConfigMgr Administrator Console.
    11.   Locate the Site Settings\Addresses subtree.
    12.   Right-click the address for the failed secondary site, and then click Delete.
    13.   Then we cleaned the registry, by taking the backup of the HKLM Node

    Thanks Lavelle, however your instructions are clearly for SCCM 2007:
    11.   Locate the Site Settings\Addresses subtree. 
    12.   Right-click the address for the failed secondary site,
    and then click Delete. 
    Can you confirm you have run these steps on your own SCCM 2012 site?

    Hi,
    It seems the Prerequisite checks failed.
     About the ERROR: Site server does not have create child permission on AD 'System Management' in ConfigMgrPrereq.log, please give the Secondary Site Server Computer Account permissions
    to the System Management container in AD.
    Please confirm that the server installed secondary site has met all the prerequisites.

  • SCCM 2012 Clients at Secondary Site don't update and shows status as INACTIVE

    I have 1 Primary site and 1 Secondary sites. I have setup Secondary site Boundaries using IP subnet.  I see that the systems from secondary
    site show in the console and they all have clients installed but however 60% of the system shows client activity as INACTIVE and not receiving any heartbeat DDR none of the system showing hardware inventory.   I am not positive
    where to look as far as logs are concerned.  I think the clients aren't receiving policy like they should.
    Just to give a brief idea, Secondary Site server crashed and we had to rebuild the server and re install secondary site after rebuilding all the
    problem. Everything is working fine in Primary site.
    Secondary site is communicating with primary site MP and DP
    I have checked MPcontrol.log it shows status as OK
    I am able to install client through console but yes when I check the configuration manager properties it shows CCM Notification Agent as DISSABLED
    and in the Action Tab Machine and User policy are the only cycles showing.
    Checked replmgr.log and rclctrl.log but it’s not showing any error
    Only log file which shows error is bgdserver.log  ( pasting log errors )

    Help me resolve this issue as I am struggling to resolve this for almost 2 weeks.
    Please let me know which logs are helpful and I'll try to add it to replies.

    Hi,
    Quote:"see that the systems from secondary site show in the console and they all have clients installed but however 60% of the system shows client activity as INACTIVE and not receiving any heartbeat DDR none of the system showing hardware inventory. "
    So not all the clients show inactive? Have you checked the logs in an inactive client? Such as ClientIDManagerStartup.log.
    Have you checked Secondary Site server's computer name from SQL logins? You could try to remove this account, wait a while, recreate the same computeraccount login with sysadmin access.

    You could use Configuration Analyzer for System Center 2012 R2 to troubleshoot issues.

  • SCCM Console on Secondary Site 2012 R2

    Hi all,
    I just want to ask whether it is supported or not when install SCCM Console on Secondary Site Server in 2012 R2? I've searched over internet but does not find a conclusion about that.
    From technet SCCM Console requirement and interoperability, there is no information that restrict install console from Secondary Site Server, but this link say it is not supported:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/systemcenter/en-US/7c31b2d6-130c-46d6-b24d-108110cb0b61/install-sccm-admin-console-on-secondary-site-servers-failed-on-one-of-two-server?forum=configmgradminconsole
    Has anyone try this, because today i installed console from one of my secondary site server and successfully connected with the primary site. Hope that does not break anything because with the ability of RBAC in 2012 R2, i can assign the admin at branch
    site permission he need to manage the clients in this secondary site.
    Thanks,

    I've seen it working with multiple customer. Also, I can imagine that it wouldn't be a supported scenario, purely because it's not tested (both new installations as upgrades).
    As, I'm not working for Microsoft and it's not documented, I can't give you any official statements.
