SQL

Installing Configuration Manager in a SQL cluster

So shortly after starting my current roll, my first task was automation of patching. I decided to accomplish this with System Center Configuration Manager. My work gave me a single server and a SQL cluster we used for several other applications. I did the obvious thing and tried to utilize the SQL cluster for the SCCM SQL requirement. For my first attempt at installing on the SQL cluster, I let SCCM create it’s own databases (DB’s).
