SCOM 2012 - SQL Connection strings

Hey SCOM gurus
Wonder if you can help?
I need to change my SCOM 2012 Management Server 'SQL Connection strings' to use a load balancer dns name of 'sql-listener'. Can anyone suggest how this might be done? (basically we now have a SQL 2014 Cluster in the background).
thanks
Karen

Hello,
You must change the database name in the registry, more information : https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh278848.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

[SCOM 2012] - SQL Alias supported ?

Hi everyone,
simple (??) question: is the use of SQL Alias for OpsMgrDB and Data Warehouse supported with SCOM 2012 ???
Regards,
P. Augras

Stefan,
Is there anything special that needs to be done for using a SQL Alias? I am able to configure the Operations Manager setup going directly to the database, but it doesn't seem to work when I use an alias? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mark

Connection Strings for SQL Server 2012

I have installed SQL Server 2012 on my machine.
I did not install a user_id or password.
I have a working website with "Remote Access" Role installed.
I have tried many different connection strings from
http://www.connectionstrings.com/sql-server-2012/:
This stood out:
Server=(localdb)\v11.0;Integrated Security=True;AttachDbFileName=C:\inetpub\wwwroot\App_Data\db.mdf;Trusted_Connection=True;
Error Code:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.

I would recommend asking them in SQL forums: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/home?forum=sqlgetstarted&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc

SCOM 2012 R2 Report Server component install to SQL 2012 Sp1 error?

Hi All
Im having issues installing SCOM 2012 R2 Report Server component to a SQL 2012 Sp1 Server (which is a Windows 2012 R2 Standard server). Im trying to install to the SQL Default server instance, note that the server also has a named instance
which hosts the SCOM databases. SQL Reporting Services is up and running fine (can access the web urls etc). Im also using the SCOM install account wich has full SQL and SCOM Server admin rights for the install. Ive checked that the Firewall
is off locally on the SQL Server, Ive also checked that the existing SCOM components are all in a Healthy state in the SCOM console.
The installed version of SQL Server could not be verified or is not supported. Verify that the computer and the installed version of SQL Server meet the minimum requirements for installation, and that the firewall settings are correct. See the Supported
Configurations document for further information.
Ive attempted the install on a standalone SQL Server away from the SQL Server hosting the SCOM databases, but encounter the same error. The full SCOM MSI Installer log details are below, line that appears most relevant is below but unsure why
this would be the case (same account that I used for SQL install etc). Any help much appreciated! : )

SCOM 2012 R2 installing on SQL 2012 SP1 - Error Code: 0x80131904, Exception.Message: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.

Hi,
I am getting an issue during a SCOM 2012 R2 installation while creating the SCOM DataWarehouse database. Setup seems to timeout during creating the datawarehouse database. I can see all database files created in windows explorer on the SQL server before
setup rolls the SCOM install back.
Has anyone seen this issue before or know how to help resolve it?
Appreciate your help, below is the SCOM installation log:
Thanks

Hi,
Based on the log, I recommend you use the following way to test SQL connectivity.
You can use a UDL file to test various connectivity scenarios, create a simple text file, rename the extension from TXT to UDL, fill out the necessary information on the connection tab then test the connection, and troubleshoot as necessary
if it fails to connect.
For more information, please review the link below:

SCCM 2012 Setup error when setting SQL connection info "Network Path Was Not Found"

Hello.
I'm facing an issue during CCM 2012 SP1 Beta Setup on step "DB INFORMATION"
My lab is set like that:
1x Front-end WS 2012 rtm "CCM Install on it" (Fresh install = no features installed)
1x Back-end WS 2012 rtm SQL Server 2012 SP1 (I don't know if this is supported).
On the sql Side there is already a first instance with SCVMM 2012 SP1(beta) environment that work well.
A second dedicated instance is ready for CCM install.
Named Pipes enabled , TCP/IP Enabled
Firewall rules for 1433 and 4022 are enabled on the Domain profile ,other profiles are disabled.
Instance Service is running with a domain account
Everything is published in AD (delegations for computer account), Schema Prep already done manually.
I'm Able to resolve dns name of the SQL server on the CCM VM and telnet 4022 + 1433 ports.
For the finish here is the end of Setup Wizard logs:

3 Steps are neccessary:
1. Make sure the Windows Firewall Service on the SQL Server is running and set to automatic
2. Add the SQL EXE as a Program Exception to the Firewall on the SQL Server:
To add a program exception to the firewall using the Windows Firewall item in Control Panel.
- On the Exceptions tab of the Windows Firewall item in Control Panel, click
Add a program.
- Browse to the location of the instance of SQL Server that you want to allow through the firewall, for example
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.<instance_name>\MSSQL\Binn, select
sqlservr.exe, and then click Open
- Click OK.
From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc646023.aspx
3. The last step neccessary, on the SQL Server, is to set File and Printer Sharing "on". When this is off, the following error occurs: "Network Path was not found"

SQL Server 2008/2012 Express Connection Problem

Hello,
since a couple of days I'm working on a problem with the SQL Server Express (32-Bit as well as 64Bit).
I installed a new SQL Server 2008 with an instance named SQL2012 and the Management Studio 2008 R2 on the same machine. I easily am abled to connect to the Server using the Management Studio with several Server Name settings (localhost, IP, (local), .\SQL2012).
Now I have a self-written programm (C#) wich should connect to the Server, but it does not work. It is definitely not a problem of the programm code because the same programm is abled to connect to a SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Edition. Similar Problem with
the 2012 Express Version (2012 Enterprise not tested).
The connection string I use and wich is working with connecting on the Enterprise Edition is: Server=Servername\Instance;Database=DatabaseName;User Id=user;Password=password;
Anybody any solution why the Express-Version refuses to connect?
(Sorry if I have made several failures in my text, English is not my native language)

It Occurs when I try to ping.Send the Server to see if he is active. If I skip this step and try to connect directly to the server (con.Open()) I get the exception:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The
server was not found or it can not be accessed. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server allows remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Connection with the SQL Server couldn't be opened)

SCOM 2012 R2 HA design but using SQL 2014 Standard edition

Hi All,
I want to deploy SCOM 2012r2 with a HA design (but have constraints!)
Plan is two management servers with all roles to each (fresh deployment so 2012r2 RU5)
SQL servers need to be 2014 standard edition due to licensing and cost constraints.
Design is to be split between two datacentres that are fibre connected and sub 3ms latency
Plan was to have a Management Server and a SQL server at each location.
Each location has a dedicated SAN but SAN replication is not an option.
What are my SQL options for the DB??
AlwaysOn FCI is not preferable as it gives a single point of failure due to shared storage requirement.
I read Database mirroring is not a supported config but this isn't Microsoft direct info just blog post, is this correct.
Which leaves me with log shipping, is this supported and the best option??
Would be great to get advice on what works well in the field with a contraint of having to use SQL Standard edition!
Thanks
James

No additional licenses are needed for management servers or SQL Server technology.

SCOM 2012 R2 installtion wizard not able to contact SQL server cluster

Hi,
This is about the error faced while installing SCOM 2012 R2.
My customer has SQL 2012 SP1 cluster installed. I am trying to install the SCOM 2012 R2 with this installed SQL cluster. The SQL cluster is installed with default instance and with AAG (Always on Availability Group).
The edition of SQL server is, SQL Server Enterprise edition with SP1
After check services on both the SQL nodes found that SQL Full text is not installed (as the related SQL Full text service not present in the services.msc) on any of the SQL cluster node & SQL Browser service is not running.
The running services for SQL are, SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) & SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER).
When I started to install the SCOM 2012 R2, Within a SCOM 2012 wizard, On the Configure the Operational Database screen, entered only the name of SQL cluster & no instance as it is with default instance MSSQLSERVER.
I faced error as, This SQL Server could not be found.
After installed SQL full text, the service is showing in services.msc as "SQL Full-text Filter Daemon Launcher (MSSQLSERVER)".
Now when I started to install the SCOM 2012 R2, Within a SCOM 2012 wizard, On the Configure the Operational Database screen, entered only the name of SQL cluster & no instance as it is with default instance MSSQLSERVER.
I faced error as, The installed version of SQL Server could not be verified or is not supported.
Followings test carried out for the connectivity between SCOM 2012 MS &SQL Cluster
Ping SQL Cluster successfully
Telnet SQL Cluster for port 1433 successfully
Tracert SQL Cluster – completed successfully with single hops.
The windows firewall is off on both sides
The SQL services running on the Active node 1 of the cluster are as follows:
SQL Full Text Filter Daemon Launcher (MSSQLSERVER) -- Running & Manual
SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) -- Running & Automatic
SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER) -- Running & Automatic
SQL serve Browser - Stopped & Manual
SQL Server VSS Writer -- Running & Automatic
The SQL services running on the Passive node 2 of the cluster are as follows:
SQL Full Text Filter Daemon Launcher (MSSQLSERVER) -- Running & Manual
SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) -- Running & Automatic
SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER) -- Stopped & Automatic
SQL serve Browser - Stopped & Manual
SQL Server VSS Writer -- Running & Automatic
The SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER) service is not running on the second node. It is running only on first node which is active.
The account used to install SCOM has the local admin privilege on the SQL server
To ping the cluster use the cluster name & it solved the whole FQDN of cluster in ping result. When ping with IP address with -a it not resolve to name.
Is any one can provide their valuable inputs.
Regards,
SandeepK

Hi SandeepK,
Before Installing Operations Manager on an availability group, please
1. Make sure to use the Group listener Name and port when installing Operations Manager for the databases that are going to be added to the availability databases.
2. The first management server will use the Group listener to get the primary SQL instance, and will install the databases on that instance.

SSRS 2012 - Windows Server 2012 R2 issue with OLEDB Connection String

Hoping someone can help. As stated above, we are running SQL Server 2012 with SP1 on Windows Server 2012 R2. When I create a Data Source as follows in Reporting Services, I receive the following error message. Any thoughts on why this fails? The same data
source works on Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise SQL Server 2008 R2.

Hi ABAA101,
According to your description, when you use csv file as data source in SSRS 2012 report, you got the error message.
I tested the issue in my local machine, due to some policy restrictions, I could not install Access in my local machine. To workaround the issue, we can use the connection string like below:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\\report;
Extended Properties="text;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited"
The csv file is stored in report folder in C driver.
In Query text box in the dataset, we can use the query like below:
Select * from new.csv
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

SCOM 2012 SP1 is failing to install - SQL not compatible

I'm getting an error when installing SCOM 2012 SP1 stating the SQL is not supported. I have seen a few posts on the forum about this error message but so far none of the resolutions resolved my issue.
Using named instance on port 2433. Entering SQL\instance and port 2433 yields same message as seen in another post:
"The installed version of SQL server is not supported. Verify that the computer and installed version of SQL Server meet the minimum requirements for installation. Please see the Supported Configurations document for further information."
I noticed I get this in my OpsMgrSetupWizard.log
[15:03:28]: Error: :StackTrace:   at System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHRInternal(Int32 errorCode, IntPtr errorInfo)
   at System.Management.ManagementScope.InitializeGuts(Object o)

[15:03:28]: Debug: :IsSQLOnAValidComputer: remote OS version string was null or empty.
Notice the last line - IsSQLOnAValidComputer is null/empty. The solutions I found are to open the ports between these servers but the SQL server and SCOM server are on the same network - no firewall between them. The registry key for domain firewall
policy to 'EnableFirewall' is 0. The firewall service is disabled on both machines.
I am running the installation as a domain service account - for the DAA. It has local admin on the SQL and SCOM server. It has sysadmin DB access to the instance.
SCOM Server:
Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1
SQL Server:
Server 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1 | SQL 2012 RM 64-bit version 11.0.2100.60
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Glad to hear the issue has been resolved. Thanks for the update.
