SQL Version
SCOM 2007 SP1
SQL 2005 SP1/SP2/SP3
No hotfixes required
SCOM 2007 R2
SQL 2005 SP1/SP2/SP3
No hotfixes required
SQL 2008 SP1
No hotfixes required
SCOM With SQL
technology
Standard edition should
be fine for just about
anybody exeption for
ACS
SCCM
SQL 2005 SP2/SP3
No hotfixes required
SQL 2008 RTM /SP1
RTM - apply hot fix
KB955229
SP1 - apply hot fix

SQL Reporting Services
SCOM
SSRS can only be
used for SCOM
Don’t use Sharepoint
Integration
(KB946419)
ResetSRS.exe
SCCM
Added to SCCM 2007
R2 for reporting
functionality
Web reporting still
available
Only reporting tool
for SCCM v.Next
Clustering and replicas
SCOM
SCCM
Log shipping
Clustering
Run DBCreateWizard.exe
Server Role

Single ActivePassive cluster
Replica’s supported
for MP, SLP and SUP
Clustering only for

Installs VSS service
Requires sysadmin for
Site server
WBEM provider not
“clusterable”
Firewall Configuration
SCOM
TCP 1433 by default
Named Instance of
SQL
UDP 1434
Custom TCP port of
named instance
If Static port is defined
after installation
Edit the
dbo.MT_ManagementGroup
table with the static port
number.
Edit the registry to configure
the static port number on the
RMS
SCCM
TCP 1433 by default
Named Instance of
SQL
UDP 1434
Custom TCP port of
named instance
Named instances
SCOM
Supported
SCCM
Supported since
ConfigMgr 2007
Support for SQL
Reporting
Named SRS installed
first
Default instance
installed afterwards
SQL Service Accounts
If SQL is running as a domain user
setspn –A MSSQLSvc/<SQL
Netbiosname>:<SQLPORT>
<Domain\Account>
setspn –A MSSQLSvc/<SQL
FQDN>:<SQLPORT> <Domain\Account>
SQL Collations
SCOM
SQL_Latin1_General_
CP1_CI_AS
Dictionary order,
case-insensitive, for
use with 1252
Character Set
(default)
SCCM
Dictionary order,
case-insensitive, for
use with 1252
Character Set
(default)
Other collations
including casesensitive supported,
yet impractical
Authentication modes
SCOM
Windows
authentication mode
Minimizes attack
surface
Reporting DW across
a firewall
Create Run-As account
Use SQL Authentication
SCCM
Windows
authentication mode
Minimizes attack

Configuring SQL
Configuring SQL
Configure memory limit so SQL can’t use
it all
Leave 2 GB minimum for the OS & SCOM or
SCCM
Protocols (tcp/ip – named pipes)
Configuring SCOM DB’s
Opsmgr DB grooming
Default 7 days => 2 days
p_PartitioningAndGrooming
PartitionAndGroomingSettings table
Opsmgr DW grooming
10 to 400 days
Data is not always groomed row-by-row
Report Caching
Schedule reports with “Null Delivery Provider”

Useful SQL Query’s
DBCC CHECKDB, sp_monitor, sp_spaceused, sp_who, xp_sqlmaint
Large table query, with rowcount
SELECT so.name, si.rowcnt as row_count,
8 * Sum(CASE WHEN si.indid IN (0, 1) THEN si.reserved END) AS data_kb, Coalesce(8 * Sum(CASE WHEN
si.indid NOT IN (0, 1, 255) THEN si.reserved END), 0) AS index_kb,
Coalesce(8 * Sum(CASE WHEN si.indid IN (255) THEN si.reserved END), 0) AS blob_kb
FROM dbo.sysobjects AS so JOIN dbo.sysindexes AS si ON (si.id = so.id)
WHERE 'U' = so.type GROUP BY so.name, si.rowcnt ORDER BY data_kb DESC
Examine Data Warehouse grooming settings
SELECT AggregationIntervalDurationMinutes, BuildAggregationStoredProcedureName,
GroomStoredProcedureName, MaxDataAgeDays, GroomingIntervalMinutes FROM
StandardDatasetAggregation
Is SQL broker enabled?
SELECT is_broker_enabled FROM sys.databases WHERE name = 'OperationsManager‘
How to identify your version of SQL server
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY
('edition')
Update Statistics
EXEC sp_updatestats
Reindex the database
USE OperationsManager
go
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
SET ANSI_WARNINGS ON
SET ARITHABORT ON
SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL ON
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT OFF
EXEC SP_MSForEachTable "Print 'Reindexing '+'?' DBCC DBREINDEX ('?')"
