SCSM 2012 - Overnight wrokflows keep stopping

When I get into work each morning I often notice that workflows have stopped working, the following symptons are experienced:
Emails stop logging
When you close an activity it does not move onto the next activity
This is a real pain because we have to move on the activities using powershell scripts, and it isn't fixed until we restart the SCSM application server which has the which has the service manager database on it. We don't have to restart the data warehouse
server.
Once we have restarted it works fine, but we have to do it most mornings.
I have no idea where to start looking, has anyone got any ideas?

well, that's definitely a fault that appears to be on the data access service account. that might cause the workflow engine to die.
unfortunately, i have no idea what might cause it to fail to resolve a user Id from AD, unless there is some external issue with your AD.

Mountain Lion keeps stopping and recalculating download at 53.25MB - I have tried several times now, no joy (have new iMac May 2012)

Mountain Lion keeps stopping and recalculating download at 53.25MB - I have tried several times now with resumes and restarts, no joy (have new iMac May 2012). Any ideas, please?
Thanks, bb2804

In cases like this, if you have an Apple store near by, they will most likely install the OS free of charge for you, if you can't bring your Apple ID along to prove you've paid for it.
Would that work out for you?

Server 2012 R2 Domain Controllers stop accepting log in and replication failure.

We have recently completed a Domain upgrade to 2012 R2 AD DS from native 2003 AD. The issue we are experiencing is that for seemingly no reason the 2012 hosts will randomly stop accepting (RDP) logins and we see replication failures. We also cannot
otherwise remotely manage the host (remote service management etc...). The only way I've been able to recover from this condition is to restart the affected host, after which (RDP) logins are again accepted and successful replication starts again.
Logs aren't showing any issues prior to the issue happening and it is not specific to one host. I have been digging around to find a solution to this abnormal behavior but as yet haven't come across anything specific to what I am seeing.
Domain level is 2008 R2 and our few remaining 2008 R2 hosts never experience this. Only seems to be the 2012 hosts and randomly among all the DCs. Not one specific 2012 host is affected.
We have 20 DCs total.
Are there any known issues? Any advice on what I may be able to look at?
We are otherwise healthy aside from this intermittent replication/login issue.

This sounds more like a network type issue than AD type problem.
Are any firewalls in the way?
Do the servers respond to a ping when they are not responding to RDP.
What are you seeing in event logs prior to the change.
Are the servers physical or virtual? Are you able to get onto the console - either through your HyperVisor or through ILO type management?
Thanks

Reinstalling SCSM 2012 SP1 -- installation fails on Finalize step "while executing a custom action:RollbackCleanup" -- absolutely stumped!

I uninstalled a previous installation of SCSM 2012 in our lab environment because the person who installed it is didn't give anyone else permissions and they weren't available to make the change. Since then, I've tried to install SCSM 2012 multiple
times and it fails every time during the Finalize step with the error shown in the picture below.
Things I've tried and double checked:
I am running the install with a domain admin account
I'm specifying a domain user service account during install which is local administrator on the machine
I rebuilt the performance counters
I'm running SQL 2k8 R2 SP2
.Net 3.5.1 is installed
I see the following message in the System Event Log during setup:
Event 7036 - The System Center Data Access Service service entered the running state.
Event 7031 - The System Center Data Access Service service terminated unexpectedly.
It has done this 1 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 60000 milliseconds: Restart the service.
It appears as though this happens 18 times before the service is no longer restarted and is left terminated.
Any thoughts or help on how to get this to work would be greatly appreciated! Log excerpts are below as well as a link to the full log file at the end.

Errors in the log that make me go "hmm…"

Making a field on the SCSM 2012 Change form a required field?

I've got an oldie but a goodie...
Are there any good instructions / example articles, for how to make a field mandatory?
I understand I need to use Visual Studio to create a control. From here I need to make a DLL and bundle it in an Management Pack Bundle. Then I have to Bind the control to the field.
A few important pieces of information. I first opened Visual Studio 3 days ago. I have no idea how to use VS. I barely found where the DLL is "built". I gave up serious coding in '93. I not bad at PowerShell and Bash.
Never used VB or C#. (Honestly, if Rob Ford's Blog didn't have screenshots I never would have figured out to use VS2010 or how to add the reference Assemblies.)
(Now that you've stop laughing...) ;-)
Do I need a new control for each field or can I re-use the control for other fields?
Why wasn't a Standard Control added to SCSM2012 to require an entry in a field? OOTB, Incidents have mandatory fields, so can I re-use that control in other forms. All we need is to require the user to include certain
fields before submitting a Change Request.
Thank you for any assistance or answers you have.
Ray Watters, Chicago

Do I need a new control for each field or can I re-use the control for other fields?
Once you have a single custom control loaded onto your form it can do everything that you require. Not just validation rules, but anything you need it to do. For example, I have done form customisations purely via a custom control.
Why wasn't a Standard Control added to SCSM2012 to require an entry in a field?
The standard forms are WPF forms and their validation rules are hard-coded in the XAML and C# that make up the forms.
To find which DatePicker you need, look at it in the Authoring Tool to see its Name or use Snoop from here:
http://snoopwpf.codeplex.com/
You can hover over the console and see the control names, although, sometimes, it is a bit unstable with the SCSM console.

SCSM 2012 R2 workflows and connectors are not triggered

Hi All,
Suddenly in my SCSM 2012 R2 Production environment , the connectors stopped synchronising at the schedule time and the Service request was in New state for very long time (stuck in New state).
When I started troubleshooting , I saw the workflow status in SCSM console , oops!! no entries
In operations manager event log , no logs generated regarding the connector issue or the SR workflow issue .
Then I tried starting the AD connector manually , two event logs (information-LFX service) generated
SyncBegin:Connector Id
SyncEnd:Connector Id
Then I stopped the services
Microsoft Monitoring Agent
System Center Data Access Service
System Center Management Configuration
deleted the health service state folder content and restarted the services
Then issue is solved , the connector started syncg and the service request state changed from New to In progress and all the workflows were triggered.
Since there is no events logged for this issue , this gonna make a huge impact in SCSM environment since workflows are the key feature in SCSM .
Is this a known issue in SCSM 2012 R2 and are there is any fix in the update rollups
Are there is any reason behind why we need to flush the SCSM health service state and how this affect the functioning of SCSM?
since we have the SCOM agent installed as part of SCSM installation and scom uses the same Health service state folder to monitor the SCSM server ??
sorry for too many questions , just to clarify my all doubts
Is there any permanent solution ?
Thanks,
Kalai

Hi,
This issue seems like a performance issue. It is recommended that you schedule the AD/SCCM connectors to run when console/system usage is low since it can have an impact on performance. You can use the following instructions to reschedule the AD connectors.

And here is a similar thread for you referenc, please go through it for more details:

Here is a link about Description of Update Rollup 2 for System Center 2012 R2 Service Manager:
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2904710?wa=wsignin1.0
It seems that it does not have fix for this.
In addition, the newest one is Update Rollup 4 for System Center 2012 R2 Service Manager:

2012 R2 DFS-R stops replicating content between members when folder permissions changed

Hello,
Since upgrading our DFS member servers (one is a physical DC, other is a VM dedicated to DFS role only) to 2012 R2 I keep getting caught in a weird replication problem. I finally found out when the problem starts, it's the change of Folder access permissions,
e.g. removing or adding a user account or group and I don't get it why exactly contents of such folder end up completely mismatched between DFS member servers.
To start from beginning, an example
Both DFS servers have a dedicated NTFS volume Y: with only 1 folder in it named Folder1 which is shared and added as Folder target on both DFS member servers. Replication group exists for that Folder1 and data is in perfect sync. New/altered content is properly
replicated to other members server in no time (<1s), everything works perfectly well.
Now, Folder 1 contains a dozen sub-folders with permission inheritance enabled, data de-duplication is enabled as well as FSRM file screening to avoid temporary files, thumbs.db and other junk of that sort. Let's say Subfolder1 requires admin to change permissions
so certain group of users get a read-only access to files stored inside while others can retain modification permission to put new files or so.
The moment I do that change it triggers a problem with DFS-R and I end up with proper copy of that sub-folder on DFS1 (physical server acting as DC) and maybe around 5-10% of content on DFS2 ... why is that so that a simple permission change operation breaks
the DFS-R every time? When that happens the DFS2 never gets those missing files, just like it didn't know it should have those.
DFS Health Report shows file count mismatch and regular File Sharing Violations from some opened files, but there is no mention of why the darn DFS2 is missing 90% of files in certain sub-folders ... it's so annoying ...
I found only 1 workaround for this problem so far, that is to manually pull out all files from affected sub-folder and get them out of shared Folder1 (simple cut and paste to new temporary folder on same volume works) on DFS1, so DFS2 clears that problematic
Subfolder1, and then manually dropping the files back in place on DFS1, later all is good on both servers ... pretty weird if you ask me.
I don't recall seeing this problem on "slow" 2008 R2 DFS-R ... Also I tested if maybe FSRM screening rules or data de-duplication has anything to do with problem, but they don't.
Does anybody else see this behavior between 2012 R2 DFS members?

interesting, seems the problem was with primary DFS member (the physical DC), it was simply not sending out updates to the partner, it was like that with all 2-way connections (all working one way from "secondary" to "primary" only).
I googled a bit a found that backups (we have nightly on either member server) trigger a pause state on replication, officially it's harmless, but what if it doesn't always automatically resume?
for now, from DFS Manager I removed all replication connections and checked if DFS2 still awaits some pending updates (sort of stuck on that), but it still did, so I had to disable its membership in all replication groups, that cleared that problem out.
After that I re-enabled its membership and re-created all 2-way replications connections, of course it triggered complete refresh of all replicated folders (no preseeding this time), but thankfully it was quick and finished in a few hours.
I also disabled backups on both servers for now, and all seems in sync except one folder where I think the problem was with incomplete replication database on "primary member" sort of being unaware of half of the files in folders - my workaround
worked on that one, just pulled all folder out of it, waited until secondary deleted them, then put them all back in and all seems replicating correctly now, also no more ghost connections.
Truly wondering what caused this madness over time, and mind you, all this setup was new, all was rebuilt on both servers (new logical volumes on both servers - one for each shared folder and replication group, new replication databases, new secondary member,
proper preseeding procedure, etc.) and it seems like this event below might actually be sometimes not so harmless as Microsoft says it is:
Event ID 5014The DFS Replication service is stopping communication with partner DFS1 for replication group domain.com\shared\folder due to an error.The service will retry the connection periodically. Additional Information: Error: 9036 (Paused for backup or restore)
It looks like sometimes, it may happen that after that warning the replication starts working only 1-way and never truly resumes which then in return can cause madness after something like updating ACL on some folder in replication content.
I re-enabled nightly backups on physical server ("primary" DFS member) for now and will keep an eye on it and potential havoc it can wreak across replication groups over time...
Hope it helps anybody stumbling upon similar problem some day ...

SCSM 2012 queries

hi
i have recently upgraded SCSM 2012 from 2010. Just few queries to be clarified...
1. Users are able to access the create request page only when i add the domain\users group in Groups -> Incident catelog -> global operators group. Is this right?
2. On the File attachment part while creating incident, i have done as per the link found in google as under published reqeust offering page and added the additional user prompt for file attachment and saved it. Now only domain admins and administrators
can access this file attachment page. It is not coming for normal users. Is there any specific permission to be given?
3. On the anouncements part, can i able to increase or decrease the fonts?
4. I need an approval process for incidents.. how to make sure certain incident categories are approved through portal?
regards Sundaresan.C

have you considered applying the latest rollup? There is a critical performance fix in UR2, which does not sound like what you are describing, but on the off chance that you are explaining things differently.
Also consider adding a second management server and connect to this. A long shot, but could rule out an "behind the curtains" performance issue.
Another long shot is to move the SM DB to its own SQL box. Also I am getting alot of Page Life expectancy is low alarms in SCOM, and we suspect some backup jobs to be the culprit. Not that it would explain issues in day-to-day operations.
Service Manager also has a tracing tool (not sure it is documented anywhere than MS internal support channels). you may be able to read something out of it. Post stuff here and we will try an decipher it.
Please use the following procedure to get Service Manager Traces and try to reproduce the same operations
on both consoles.
StartTrace:
         Open a command prompt
         Switch to the SCSM install folder\Tools
directory
         tracelogsm.exe -start Perftrace -guid
Performance.ctl -f c:\Perftrace.etl -rt -flag 0x300FF010 -level 5 -ft 2 -cir 100
Reproduce the behavior
Stop trace:
         tracelogsm.exe -stop Perftrace
Format Trace:
         set TRACE_FORMAT_PREFIX=[%9!d!]%8!04X!.%3!04X!::%4!s![%!FLAGS!][%!LEVEL!][%!FUNC!]

Hi Pavel,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you set up Service Manager 2012 SP1 running on SharePoint 2013.
Please check whether you have configured SCSM and SharePoint 2013 correctly. You can check as the following link:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/thomase/archive/2013/08/19/how-to-get-service-manager-2012-self-service-portal-running-on-sharepoint-2013.aspx
Please make sure you used the same account to instal SharePoint and Service manager.
If this issue still exists, please do as the followings:
Open Central Administration\Monitoring\Review job defintions, select the servers in the farm one-by-one , then click Application Server Administration Service Timer Job, click Disable.
Restart "Sharepoint 2010 Timer " in services.msc on all servers in the farm.
Try to install the SCSM portal.
Click Central Administration\Monitoring\Review job defintions\Application Server Administration Service Timer Job, click Enable.
Restart "Sharepoint 2010 Timer " in services.msc on all servers in the farm

Do you have auto drop enabled? Look for a red bar at the top where the green cycle bar is. It will punch you out at the end of the red bar.

Trying to Perform an install of SCSM 2012 SP1 - SQL Analysis Services Not Installed

I'm performing a clean install of System Center Service Manager 2012 on a Windows 2012 server. The prerequisite checker told me the Analysis Objects were not installed. I clicked the link and downloaded the SQL Server 2008 R2 Analysis
Management Objects. I restarted the install and it still says it's not installed. I also tried installing the 2012 version of the objects and still no luck.
I also tried installing both the x86 and x64 versions of these tools.
I have also tried the same install on a Windows 2008 R2 server and had the same error. I'm convinced this is a bug in the setup.
Has anyone else seen this? Is it a known issue?

Try to check the log file SCSMSetupWizardxy.log under C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp
perhaps it could not load Microsoft.AnalysisServices.dll assembly.

can you confirm if that assembly exists in the Assembly folder.
on a side note: SCSM 2012 SP1 supports 2008 R2 SP1 or above, and double check that the account you are using to install the SM is a local admin.
