System Center Orchestrator SSL error when running DBConfig against existing DB
Hey all, I migrated the server to a new AD domain, and ran a repair on SQL, and re installed Orchestrator. SQL is working as expected. but when Orchestrator goes to configure the Database, it gives an ssl error. I told it to trust the server cert, SQL is on the same server. It sees the existing Orchestrator DB, but gives ssl error, even i try to use it, or try and create a new DB. Orchestrator 2025, SQL 2022 This is in the dbconfig error log The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted. Do I need to delete the certs form the old domain or something weird? (We don't have the new CA set up yet; I just need to run locally for now) TY
Orchestrator 2025 Security Credentials Problem
Hi, I’m experiencing an issue in SCO 2025 that has occurred across three different installations. In the Text File Management and File Management IPs, I’m unable to save the security credentials information for the activities. In other activities, such as Get Service Status, it works as expected. If I enter the account information, click Finish, and then reopen the properties, the fields are empty. As a result, the activity runs using the service account specified for the Orchestrator Runbook Service. Has anyone else experienced the same issue, or could there be something wrong with my installations? Get file status: Get service status:All Clients Showing with Question Mark in MECM Console - ResourceID Issue
All of a sudden (2 weeks ago) all my MECM Clients (~ 4000) in MECM 2409 are showing with a question mark (?) in the console and no values in Last Online Time, Last Activity or HeartBeatDDR. Upon investigation in the statesy.log file on our single site server we see the following message for all clients: SQL MESSAGE: dbo.spProcessStateReport - The record for machine MYCLIENT (GUID:CF5413C8-1DA7-450D-9243-33DB539DE8FF) was not found in the database. SMS_STATE_SYSTEM 24/09/2025 10:36:45 15356 (0x3BFC) We then ran MS SQL profiler and see that this external CLR stored proceedure checks for the existince of the client in the SQL view vLocalSystemIDXRef. This view is defined as follows: create view [dbo].[vLocalSystemIDXRef] as select MachineID, GUID from MachineIdGroupXRef where ArchitectureKey=5 and MachineID between dbo.fnGetSiteRangeStart() and dbo.fnGetSiteRangeEnd() The issue is that all clients are actually in the underlying table MachineIdGroupXRef but due to the filter dbo.fnGetSiteRangeStart() and dbo.fnGetSiteRangeEnd() they are not part of the view. The reason is their ResourceID is only 4 digits and the value returend from fnGetSiteRangeStart is 16777216. Q: How could the clients be getting this 4-digit resourceID all of a sudden? We have made no chnagesto MECM (no upgrades, DB restores etc. ).Unable to import drivers into SCCM 2503

Orchestrator Designer 10.25.1.7 VMware Integration Guest OS version
We are new to System Center 2025 Orchestrator Runbook Designer and the VMware Integration. We would like to use the native functionality to create virtual machines, but in the Create VM activity, the Guest OS property has a list of possibilities that only goes up to Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. Does anyone else use the VMware Integration Create VM activity, and does it show supported operating system versions? If so, what could we be doing wrong?
SCSM 2025 installation failure - _PopulateUserRoles
Let me lay out the full picture first. Windows Server 2025, Remote SQL Server 2022 CU 20 FCI (used for internal reasons, but I also tried using Always On and encountered the same error), and a clean installation of SCSM 2025 Management Server. I also tried CU19, but the same issue occurs. The installation starts without any problems. It goes through all the steps: creates the database, configures registry settings, configures the server, installs services, and imports management packs. But right after that, I get the following error: _"An error occurred while executing a custom action: PopulateUserRoles This upgrade attempt has failed before permanent modifications were made. Upgrade has successfully rolled back to the original state of the system. Once the corrections are made, you can retry the upgrade for this role." Immediately after this, the Event Viewer logs the following Event ID 36882: "The certificate received from the remote server was issued by an untrusted certificate authority. Because of this, none of the data contained in the certificate can be validated. The TLS connection request has failed. The attached data contains the server certificate. The SSPI client process is rundll32 (PID: 5084).” SQL does not require encryption and is not using any custom certificate. Just to clarify, the internal CA certificate is installed on all servers. The event is weird because, at this point, the installation has already created and configured the database. It doesn’t make sense to me, but the event appears at the exact same moment the installation fails. I’ve already checked permissions on both SQL and SCSM. The service account is a local administrator, has "Log on as a service" rights, and is a sysadmin on SQL. I’ve searched everywhere online but haven’t found a solution... Any ideas?

[SOLVED] SCCM - Application auto upgrade not working
Hello, I'm trying to deploy applications with auto upgrade but nothing happens. Let me explain what I'm doing : App_V1 is deployed as available to a user collection I install the app, nothing special here App_V2 is set to supersede App_V1 with uninstall checkbox (I need that in my environment) I deploy App_V2 as available to the same user collection with the checkbox "Automatically upgrade any superseded versions of the application" In the software center, I can see App_V2 with the install button (App_V1 is hidden, expected), but nothing else happens If I check the logs, I can see in PolicyAgent.log (only) : A line starting with "Compiling policy <deploymentID>/supersedence..." Then a line starting with "Raising event: instance of CCM_PolicyAgent_AssignmentDisabled...<some assignment info> Nothing else I don't know how to further troubleshoot that situation. Can someone give me some clues ? ThanksForce DPM 2025 RA to use FQDN or trust server certificate when trying to backup SQL Server
Hi, anybody know a way to force the Recovery Agent to use the FQDN instead of the NETBIOS name or configure it to trust the SQL Server certificate on a SQL Server cluster. The certificate has both the NETBIOS and FQDN certificate and the server requires encryption I am getting the following error WARNING SQL - Detailed Description "Client unable to establish connection.

Hello, Microsoft has recently made System Center available via the CSP program, but it is not clear to me how one would activate SQL server standard that I am entitled to run via an active System Center subscription.

I cannot find anything anywhere about how to properly activate SQL Server Standard.SCOM Linux parameter for Expression/Alert Description
Hi, I would like to know if there is a way to get more information from //*[local-name()="StdOut"] parameter. I know that it can be used in this way in Expression and $Data/Context///*[local-name()="StdOut"]$ in Alert. But I would like to forward little bit more info into Alert and Expression itself. For example got script which returns two values Uptime and LastBoot. And I would like to build the Expression based on Uptime and provide LastBoot into Alert description. I wonder if this is even possible in SCOM. Script itself : #!/bin/bash # Get uptime in seconds uptime_seconds=$(cat /proc/uptime | cut -d'.' -f1) # Get last boot time last_boot=$(who -b | awk '{print $3, $4}') # Output in the required format echo "Uptime : $uptime_seconds" echo "LastBoot : $last_boot" So I tried with //*[local-name()="StdOut"][contains(., "last_boot")]/text() $Data/Context///*[local-name()="StdOut"][contains(., "last_boot")]/text()$ But it doesn't work.SCOM Linux Parameter for Expression/Alert Description
