  • 1.  Problem adding additional SEPM 12.1.6 server to existing site

    Posted Nov 30, 2015 02:06 PM

    Hi,

    I have SEPM 12.1.6 in my site which is running on Windows Server 2008 R2 server. I was previosuly using embedded database. Then i moved from embedded database to MS SQL Server 2008 database on same machine by following the steps outlined in below article.

    https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH102547.html

    Everything was fine so far. However when today i was trying to add additional SEPM 12.1.6 server to existing site, i am getting the following error

    “The server schema is higher than the database schema, the configuration cannot continue for adding new server”

    Can anyone help in resolving this issue?

    Are you setting it up for failover/load-balancing or for replication?

    are you using the same version of setup to install on the new server ? also can you try to run the upgrade.bat file on the existing server and the try to add the secondary partner.

    Brian, I am setting up secondary SEPM for failover/loadbalancing.

    Should be located in the Tools folder on the SEPM in the SEPM folder.

    C:\Program Files\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\Tools

    Thanks guys. The problem like you guys mentioned was indeed related to Primary site SEPM being of lower version. Once i upgraded it then everything went smoothly.
