SQL Server requirements
Each product in the System Center 2012 R2 suite uses a SQL Server database to host configu-
ration and product data. SQL Server support is as follows:
■
App Controller
SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2, SQL Server 2012 (RTM and SP1)
■
DPM
SQL Sever 2008 R2 (SP1 and SP2), SQL Server 2012 (RTM and SP1)
■
Operations Manager Data Warehouse
SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1 and SP2), SQL
Server 2012 (RTM, SP1, and SP2)
■
Operations Manager Operational Database
SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1 and SP2),
SQL Server 2012 (RTM, SP1, and SP2)
■
Operations Manager Reporting Server
SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1 and SP2), SQL
Server 2012 (RTM, SP1, and SP2)
■
Orchestrator Management Server
SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1 and SP2), SQL Server
2012 (RTM and SP1)
■
Service Manager Database
SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1 and SP2), SQL Server 2012
(RTM and SP1)
■

SQL Server 2012 (RTM and SP1)
■
Virtual Machine Manager
SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2, SQL Server 2012 (RTM and SP1)
In testing environments it is possible to use one SQL Server Database Engine element to
host the databases for all System Center 2012 R2 products. The performance impact of this
configuration means that it is not recommended for production environments. System Center
R2 products cannot share an Reporting Services instance, and separate instances must be
deployed for each product that uses Reporting Services.
