We are working to install SCCM 2012 using SQL Server 2008 R2 as our Database Target.
About our environment.
- SCCM server is part of of "Domain A" and SQL Server is Part of "Domain B". A two trust is between the two.
- SQL Server is running CU 6 (10.50.1765).
- I've enabled: Named Pipes, TCIP, Disable Dynamic Ports and set the Port to 1433
- SQL Server is running under a named instance
- I granted the SCCM Server full access and as well as the domain account being used to do the install.
- The default collation is set to "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
To rule out firewall problems we ran a PS script to test the connectivity to the server\instance and it checked out ok.
We are getting the error.
Setup is unable to connect to SQL Server with the connection information provided. Verify the following:
The sql server and instance names are entered correctly The specified sql server instance is not configured to use dynamic ports If a firewall is enabled on the SQL Server, inbound rules exists to allow connection to the correct ports. The account used to run Setup has permissions to connect to the specified SQL Server Instance.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
