SCCM Upgrade with an Offline Service Connection Point
Hello everyone, We are trying to do a offline upgrade for SCCM ver 2010 to 2203 with SCP in offline mode. however, I am having an issue while on the Prepare stage with the Service Connection tool cannot connect to the SCCM Database. It is on a separate SQL server. Do anyone face any issue before. The error is as shown below E:\USB\ServiceConnectionTool>serviceconnectiontool.exe -prepare -usagedatadest E:\USB\UsageData.cab ERROR: can not connect to the database. Please refer to the log file for more information. The Service Connection Tool.log showing below in red: login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'. Any idea what is the issue.

As i cannot find anything on this issue, can anybody help. Or is there anyway to upgrade beside the ServiceCOnnectionTool. Thank you. Regards, Scoko果博东方开户+威a3322148
DPM 2019, using SQL 2019 on a 2019 server. The server was doing a consistency check on a file server. The check lasted about 33 hours and the items scanned showed over 4 million. There is no way a server could have 1 million files and folders, let alone 4 million. Does anyone know why the number of items scanned would be so high?SCVMM 2025 can't deploy Service Templates to Win2025 guest VMs.
I recently upgraded my SCVMM 2022 instance to 2025. I have a few Service Templates for lab/test purposes that expedite deployments such as installing the first DC in a new AD forest. I wanted to upgrade these Service Templates to work with Win2025 guest VMs so I built a new syspreped Windows Server 2025 image, and copied my "New Forest DC" Service Template so it could utilize a Win2025 guest. After a lot of troubleshooting, I found that SCVMM 2025 seems to fail to be able to configure a Win2025 guest. I originally thought there may be an issue with my Application Confg scripts that install the ADDS role and install the first DC. However, after removing those scripts and just trying to install Rolls and Features under the OS Configuration options, they appear to fail as well. Has anyone had any success deploying a Service Template with Win2025 guests VMs? Simple test to try to reproduce: Create a syspreped image .VHDK file with Windows Server 2025 (I've tested with both Gen2 and Gen1) Create a Service Template to deploy one guest VM Machine Tier. Add a few Windows Roles and Features (I'm adding ADDS, DNS, GPMC and the management tools) Example screenshot below. Deploy the service. For me, the VM deploys properly but the Service Template eventually fails and no roles are installed as it hangs on the deploy applications task. (2nd screenshot below). This works just fine with a Windows Server 2022 image. Can anyone else reproduce this? Did I miss something that is needed in the guest image? Thanks in advance.
SCOM 2022 AD group monitoring failing
Hi all, Been a good 5 or 6 years since i last dabbled with SCOM - and i think im missing something simple - but not sure what. Installed SCOM 2022 UR2 a few weeks back and installed the agent onto one DC a part of a POC. Create a custom rule with the following properties Rule category : Alert Rule target: Windows domain controller Log Source : Security Expression: ( ( Event ID Equals 4728 ) AND ( Event Source Contains Domain Admins ) ) Alert description: $Data/LoggingComputer$ $Data/EventDescription$ No overrides. I swear i have done the same (granted many years ago) - but its just not working. I can see the event log entry in the security log that should trigger a match. In the Operations manager log i am getting The EventLog service reported that the Security event log on computer 'dc01.x.com' is corrupt. The Windows Event Log Provider will attempt to recover by re-opening log. One or more workflows were affected by this. Workflow name: MomUIGeneratedRuledfb20600b62c4463840e5c737e29695b Instance name: dc01.x.com Instance ID: {57D34D1F-F4F6-4487-CF86-10886C3AC019} Management group: MG1 This makes me think there is something wrong my rule.... but... i just cant see anything wrong with the rule. Can anyone point out what i am missing ?
Computer / System Protection using large amount of storage
We have a domain controller (Windows Server 2019 Standard) which has the DPM agent installed and is backed up through DPM (2019). The domain controller has a 600GB disk and the used space is approx. 50GB as this server doesn't perform any other function. We have noticed that the Computer \ System Protection data source is using over 900GB of disk storage. Why would the System Protection be using so much storage space for backups?
create a SCOM monitor by referring a Rule
Hi, Is there any step by step guidance to create a SCOM Monitor by referring the existing performance collection rule. We have a Performance Collection rule which is collecting the metrics as expected and its used for creating dashboards. But now we have a requirement to create an alerting monitor based on that collected counter metric values from that Rule. I tried everywhere by no tutorials and use full links to refer. Please someone help.
SCOM Reporting installation failure
We upgraded OS to 2022, applied SQL 2019 CU 28 update and also updated SCOM from 2019 to 2022. The upgrade from SCOM completed but the reporting function failed. We have tried alot possible solutions including fresh reporting installation using SQl reporting 2022 and also changing ports but nothing worked. It is the reporting function only that fails . Also tried installing on a fresh instance but still not working. We have a single SCOM server that hosts all functions. Please help if you got any suggestions.

Hello, I’m facing an issue with multicast traffic in my Hyper-V environment and would appreciate some insights. I have IGMP snooping enabled, and I’ve noticed the following behavior: Multicast works when VMs are on different hosts. Multicast also works when VMs are on different logical switches. However, multicast does not work when VMs are on the same host or using the same logical switch. Could someone help explain why multicast is not functioning in the latter scenario? Are there specific configurations or settings I should check in Hyper-V or SCVMM that could affect multicast traffic when VMs are on the same host or logical switch? Thank you for your assistance!
