Help VMware esxi vm High CPU running SharePoint server 2019
jcmfxt your issue requires bit more info:
- Which is the SharePoint Architecture topology ? Single server , Multiple Servers etc..
- Which MinRole has been assigned to the impacted server ?
The problem with SQL may be related.
It depends how you have configured the instance at the very beginning in SP:
If you used alias name than it should not be a problem, meaning you just swap the instance behind the alias at the moment of the SQL server clone and the rest is transparent for SharePoint.
If not than you have to check each SP service (MMS, Search, BDC etc...) and see where they are pointing to
- Thanks for replying. I'm new to SharePoint and this company and everything was already deployed. We have a single server with only about 15 users. In Central admin is says role is custom. I'm not sure where to check if there's an alias or where the SP services are pointing.
Custom role means you are not taking benefits of the MinRole feature and you can decide every SP service startup on your own (as we are talking of a single server it's fine).
For checking the alias click on the server start and type "cliconfg.exe", the SQL Server Client Network Utility should pop up and you have the Alias tab to check whether an alias is present or not
You can match later the alias information with the Farm Information that you can find in the Servers in Farm tab in the Central Admin (/_admin/FarmServers.aspx)
To check the DB endpoint configured for the SP services, one option is to use the CA, click on "Manage Service Applications", select the SP Service then click on Properties. Another option is to use PowerShell
I ran the cliconfg and there wasn't any aliases. I went to service applications and there's not an SP listed.
