I have frequent DPM console crashes after installing and configuring MARS. I have used solely on-premise storage for many years, but I want to explore the possibility of using Azure storage for long term use. However, the frequent DPM MMC console crashes after installing MARS makes it virtually impossible to use and configure with virtually anything I try to do. What is going on?

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?35Views0likes0CommentsSCSM 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? Thanks.77Views0likes1Comment[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.

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. If I check in the admin center, I get download media and keys specifically for System Center, but nothing for SQL. I cannot find anything anywhere about how to properly activate SQL Server Standard.48Views0likes0CommentsSCVMM 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.Solved586Views0likes4CommentsSCOM Linux parameter for Expression/Alert Description

I have a question regarding the management of multicast traffic in a Hyper-V environment. I've been researching how multicast works with virtual switches and the role of IGMP snooping. From what I understand, multicast traffic is primarily managed at the switch level through IGMP snooping, rather than being directly managed by Hyper-V or SCVMM. Is this correct? Can someone confirm whether the effective management of multicast traffic relies more on the configuration of physical network switches rather than on Hyper-V or SCVMM settings? Additionally, if there are any specific configurations I should be aware of in Hyper-V or SCVMM to ensure proper multicast functionality, I would appreciate your insights!196Views1like1CommentOperations Manager Health Service Modules 31569
