  • 1.  Which version of SQL server is good for SEPM servers

    Posted Jan 11, 2013 01:24 PM

    Hello all,

    I am new to administering SEPM. So, anya  help provided is greatly appreciated.

    we have 3 SEPM servers and all are using internal db's. We have about 1400 clients that we monitor.

    What are the recommendation for moving the DB to SQL server? and guide lines or pointer are helpful.

     

    Thanks

    RJ

    Hello,

    The Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager includes an embedded database, and this is the only choice in Small Business Edition. In the enterprise version, you may use the embedded database or one of the following versions of Microsoft SQL Server:

    • SQL Server 2005, SP4
    • SQL Server 2008
    • SQL Server 2008 R2
    • SQL Server 2012

    Note: If you install the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager and the SQL database on the same computer, a minimum of 4 GB of RAM is recommended.

    Reference: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH195325

    Hope that helps!!
