The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Systems Management Server versions 1.0, 1.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
The Microsoft Systems Management Server Administrator's Guide incorrectly
specifies the recommended number of SQL server connections needed for setting up
SMS on page 55:
Make sure that the SQL Server has a maximum user connection
setting that has at least 5 connections for use by SMS. Ten
connections are recommended.
If you attempt to setup SMS version 1.0 with less than 20 connections, then the
following error appears during Setup:
Not enough SQL connections are available for correct execution of SMS. At
least 20 connections are recommended.
If you choose OK, the following error appears:
Error: Number of requested connections must be >= 20.
RESOLUTION
==========
Increase the number of connections available to SQL to 20 or greater.
NOTE: Systems Management Server version 1.0 and 1.1 require SQL Server, not SQL
Workstation. SQL Server allows more than 20 connections, SQL Workstation allows
a maximum of 15.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Systems Management
Server versions 1.0 and 1.1. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
