Hardware Requirements for a SCCM 2012 CAS with SQL Server Remote
The hardware requirements for a CAS server with SQL Server Enterprise locally installed are:
16 cores (Intel Xeon L5520 or comparable CPU)
64 GB of RAM
1.5 TB of disk space for the operating system, Configuration Manager, SQL Server, and all database files.
Does anyone know what the hardware requirements are if SQL Server Enterprise is remote from the CAS server? It's not listed. -Shane
Even though I am going to be strung up for even saying this, I do agree there is a use for a CAS outside of 100,000 users. If you do indeed have distinct admins managing their own images and apps in remote
locations then I see the benefit of a CAS. A remote ConfigMgr console connecting to a primary site would perform poorly. Admin A at the primary site would not experience any issues but Admin B would be in for a lot of work and waiting. Any
time Admin B needed to add an app or image it would have to be copied up to the remote primary site and then distributed back down. This is not the best scenario.
There are scenarios in company merger situations (and others I am sure) where the management of both locations has not been consolidated down to one location yet and is not going to be done as part of the deployment or upgrade. If you had a 2007 environment
it is going to be very hard to convince the admin at the remote location that this upgrade is going to be a good thing for him/her. There is an option for the remote admin to RDP into a server in the primary site but the image and apps still need
to be distributed down to the remote location. During testing this can be very time consuming.
I do agree that adding a CAS adds additional complexity but in some cases such as the one I described it is the right decision.
Thank you for the reply. And i totally agree that in some cases a design like that is a necessary evil (but not by our personal wants).
We had that design with 2007 (implemented before my time), and as you predicted EU admins complained about difficulty using the console RDP-ed into a box close to the primary site. The bandwidth to and from different regions is out of scope for me so I do what
I can with what I have. We too will be moving forward with a CAS hierarchy.
Administratively the other IT depts in other regions operate on their own. I dont handle any of the EU computers on a day to day basis whatsoever, etc. We're not merging but our IT shops operate with near independence.

RDS 2012: Compatible with SQL Server 2014 AlwaysOn?
Is Remote Desktop Services 2012 R2 compatible with SQL Server 2014 AlwaysOn Availability Groups? Are there any procedural documents available for RDS requirements on how it expects AlwaysOn to be configured?
ThanksHi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
As per my research, we can install SQL server 2014 on RDS Server 2012\R2, you can check below article with step by step guide.
How to install SQL Server 2014
In addition for SQL AlwaysOn Consideration there is useful blog (RDS 2012 SQL AlwaysOn Considerations) you can go through for details.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Will Report Builder 2012 Work with SQL Server 2008???
Simple question really
Will Report Builder 2012 work in conjunction with SQL Server 2008???
Is it worth while upgrading?
The main reason i ask is the ability to export in an xlsx format
ThanksHi Gmach,
The version of Report Builder on SQL Server Reporting Service (SSRS) 2012 is Report Builder 3.0. The Report Builder 3.0 manufactures 2010 RDL reports, so it only works with the version of SQL Server 2008 R2 or later. So in your scenario, we can no connect
to SQL Server 2008 Server using Report Builder that on SSRS 2012.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Regards,
Charlie Liao

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"

About SCCM 2012 Primary sites sql server security logins
Hi, guys!
I've got some issue or some misunderstanding....In primary site's sql security logins there were same accounts as on CAS sql.....(We've got about ten primary servers)....two days ago someone (i'm going to find out that guy....damned...) from branch administrators
cleared up security list logins on one of primary server and left only two accounts....one of them it is primary site server installation account, second account - there is SCCM all hierarchy administrators group....
Most of that....that somebody got lower site server installation account role from sysadmin to public....
Am I right thinking in that way - all sql server security logins on all primary sites in one hierarchy must be identical....it explains by SQL replication.......?????
How can i get back sql security logins list on that sccm server to normal way....became after installing primary site server....??? need help......Hi,
Primary sites do not always have the same security logins.
You need to add NT... accounts, sa etc into security logins. These accounts were added during SQL installation.
All site system computer accounts (such as MP, DP) and primary site computer account also need to be added.
Best Regards,
Joyce

Is SSRS 2012 compatible with SQL Server 2014?
Will it still work if a DW database is in SQL Server 2014 but the reporting services is in SSRS 2012?
Very likely. If not, probably will be at the next service pack.

Proper WSUS+SCUP on SCCM 2012 SP1 with SQL 2012
Been pulling my hair out a new build.
System:
Windows 2012
SQL 2012 SP1
WSUS 4.0
SCUP 2011
WSUS itself will synch if I set source= Microsoft Update.
SCCM SUP will synch with if I set source= Microsoft update.
SCUP will not connect to "update server" in this config.
SCUP will not connect if I check connect to local update server. Nor will it when i try to connect to itself as a remote (ie local host or fqdn in Update server screen)
Now whats weird is if I throw a proxy on my spare machine and aim WSUS and SCUP to use it try SUP to FQDNof SCCM host:8530....I can connect
The problem is with the proxy in play I cannot download Dell catalogs as it used FTP not HTTP (Adobe will download though)
Every so often just for fun it will throw "request for principal permission failed.
Anyone that has this working can you please tell me what you have on each of the SUp. WSUS and SCUP screensTry running SCUP as administrator. This is usually necessary when SCUP is installed on the ConfigMgr/WSUS server and UAC is enabled. heres a guide that may help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyEGWSFWyy0 using Group Policy is the easiest wat to deploy
the certificates as well.

Can TS work with sql server compact or express?
I'm don't have much experience with the underpinning of database systems. I know conceptually how they work and can hack my way through sql queries. Is there something fundamentally different about a Sql Server Compact itnstall versus Sql Server versus Sql Server Express? Can TS work with any of them with a proper connection string?
My problem is at our local site a previous employee set us up on Sql Server and wrote a web app (.asp) to do the query for presentation on a web page. At an offsite location they can't install Sql Server and I'm trying to figure out the best path for them to be able to use the same .asp tool we have. My gut feeling is the .asp tool is probably set up such that it wouldn't take much to make it work with MySql but because I don't have the luxury of time I'm hoping someone can point me in what they think might be the easiest direction (whether that is sql compact if possible or MySql for them).Hi,
TestStand works with SQL server express. (not sure about SQL server compact).

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 VasudevanFirst, 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.

Hardware requirements for SQL database used with TestStand
We are wanting to set up a SQL server to store the data from TestStand.
How do we determine the hardware requirements for this server? It will be used with 10-30 machines running tests and logging data and another 5-10 machines running queries to pull the data back out for analysis. The result data size will range from 50-25,000 results per run (run times are 1 minute for 50 result tests and 5 hours for the 25,000 result tests).Hi,
database design and hardware requirements are never easy. There are a lot of scientific papers on work load tests and requirement assumptions. I can not give a short answer which machine to use. Just some ideas and starting points.
The most important parts of a database system with large data sets are network bandwidth, RAM and storage bandwidth. With smaller data sets and more complex transactions the CPU becomes more important.
In this TS case the data sets are usually rather small. If the queries are not too complex, the requirements seems to be not too high.
Database performance is usually measured in transactions per minute (tpm). Special database servers can perform several thousands tpm and have costs starting at about 15 $ per tpm. See MS' ad page for a g
ood starting point: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/evaluation/compare/benchmarks.asp
You may also visit the TPC.org homepage.
To be more specific.
I'd choose a modern Intel-based system like P4-3MHz (that have virtual multiprocessors) with at least 512 MB RAM and a RAID5 hard disk storage system (not nercessarily SCSII) with at least 3 single HDs. Use a 100 MB LAN connection at least, best with a switch. Don't forget backup!
Check also the pages of your preferred database provider.
I am on a starting point here too. We have chosen mySQL, which runs (at least now) on the very same machine where TS & LV are running. We plan to test this setup with increasing burden to get a practical assumption of the HW requirements. The planned final setup will have up to 5 test stations and 5 query stations. We'll run about 50 rather complex tests of about 4 hours each that operate in parallel on the test stations.

Hi
I have SCCM 2012 R2 CU4 (on Windows 2012 R2) with SQL 2012 (on Windows 2012 R2).
we decided to install a CAS,
there he has a procedure that
allows you to attach an existing SCCM
2012 R2 CAS?
ThanksAssuming you've got a good reason to install a CAS, here is the procedure to expand a stand-alone primary site with a CAS:

Hardware requirement for running exchange 2010 on vmware workstation
Dear Team,I need to create a exchange 2010 sp2 on a guest os on vmware workstation.kindly help me out with the physical hardware requirements for a home user
Hey Mukund26,
Before I answer your questions, my suggestion would be for you to figure out exactly what you want to get out of running that Exchange lab. Are you trying to learn Exchange features like DAGs? Are you trying to learn about virtualizing Exchange? When you figure that out you'll be better able to answer question 1 since you may not need all of those virtual machines.
Here are my thoughts on your questions.
1) It is probably technically possible to run 10 virtual machines on the configuration you have but you're going to have pretty bad performance. I would try to trim that down to only the virutal machines that you really need in order to use the lab how you want to use it. Here are some questions that may help you figure out what you need:
Why do you need two domain controllers? I don't think you need to worry as much about redundancy in your lab.
Why do you need 2 ESXi hosts and a vCenter? What purpose do they serve in this configuration? Are you trying to run the Exchange VMs nested under the ESXi VMs? If so, why?
Is there a reason why you want to separate out HTS/CAS from MBX in your lab? Combining all roles together can reduce the number of VMs you need. If you separate out the roles you'll need to allocate a lot of RAM to support all of those Exchange VMs.
2) Running a lot of virtual machines on a single 1TB SATA disk, especially a 5400 RPM disk, is going to be slow. It'll be especially painful when the VMs are booting up, rebooting, shutting down, etc.. Try to stagger the power on operations so they don't all boot at once. For example, first boot your DCs, then boot your HTS/CAS, then your MBX, etc. There is no doubt that configuration will be slow, so if you can get your hands on an solid state drive with enough space you'll have significantly better performance. For the purposes of a lab, though, it is probably ok if you can be patient.
3) I think the i5 processor will be just fine for this lab. Usually in a lab setting CPU performance isn't the most important thing so similar to above as long as you can be a little patient I think that CPU will suit you just fine.
As I said figure out what you want to get out of the lab and then you can determine how many VMs you need and whether or not you want to upgrade hardware. If you're looking to learn about Exchange 2010 in general I would suggest using multirole servers, getting rid of one of the DCs, and not worrying about virtualizing ESX/vCenter so that you can learn. If you're looking to learn about virtualizing Exchange 2010 on vSphere then let's figure out exactly what you want to get out of it and figure out what you can learn using VMware Workstation and what you really need vSphere for.
Best of luck!

Is the distribution point role required on an SCCM 2012 site server?
I am wondering if the distribution point role is required on an SCCM 2012 site server.
We have an installation of SCCM 2012 SP1 with a site server, and two remote DPs.
I would like to remove the DP role from the site server, and stand up another server (2012) at the same location, making it a DP and also have it hold the WSUS content.
I was successful in creating the DP on the new server. I distributed all of our packages to the new server.
I then removed the packages from the DP on the site server, and removed the DP role from the site server.
After making these changes, we lost the ability to deploy packages, either from the new DP server, or from the previously existing DPs that were at other locations.
Deployment status in the SCCM console showed that clients were “waiting for content”.
I found that adding the DP role back to the site server, and distributing packages to it corrected the problem.
Deployment resumed after doing that. Is it necessary to have packages on a DP on the site server?
We want to virtualize the server, and would like to make it as small as possible to facility restores.Hi,
