    The new management packs are failing the verification step during import.  For example here's one of the errors: SQL Server 2008 (Discovery) did not pass the security verification. The management pack cannot be downloaded and the temporary file has been deleted. Could not load management pack [ID=Microsoft.SQLServer.2008.Discovery, Keytoken=31bf3856ad364e35, Version=6.6.0.0].

    Installed this release last week, was working great afterwards, however today dashboard views spin the wheel for a minute or two and when the tiles finally appear they are not populated as expected. I can't find any evidence as to why. The servers that host Ops and DW DB's aren't logging errors, neither is my local console or the MS. Anyone else experiencing this? Same result whether running the console locally on the MS or on my laptop. Running 2012 R2 CU4. >> Update: Looks like the tempDB or SCOM DB size on the DW side is blowing out rapidly, upshot is the disk runs out of space, restarted server and freed up 12 Gb which was absorbed within a couple of minutes. Total capacity 300gb drive. Is this known/expected behavior after importing these MP's? Thanks!

    We updated to the new version of the MP last week also (15th), and I was alerted on the 16th that the log file on the DW was filling up. We expanded the drive from 75GB to 150GB to 250GB and it just takes longer to fill up the log. Did some digging and looks like it sits on insert statements in the new [sdk].[Microsoft_SQLServer_Visualization_Library_UpdateHierarchy] stored proc, specifically on the insert near the end around lines 192 to 205.

    I have the same issue as Greg. I added the SQL 2014 MP 6.6.0.0 and updated to 6.6.2.0 this morning and filled the logs and still have errors in on the Management Servers... Any suggestions. Should i remove the MP and re import it? Thanks, Mike

    Transaction log for tempdb also devours the space, have had to expand the disk capacity multiple times. Growth has since stopped but dashboards are still devoid of data.... Ironic that I'd got the previous version working fine! Should have waited a few days for the dust to settle with this latest release, one to remember moving forward. Any recommended workarounds?

    Just got this error on one of the custom views I set up last week: Stored procedure '[sdk].[Microsoft_SQLServer_Visualization_Library_GetDataCenterDashboardData]' wasn't found in Data Warehouse. It usually takes few minutes after importing the Management Pack to populate changes required for Visualization to the Data Warehouse. If this error occurs more then after 24 hours since Management Pack import then contact Operations Manager Administrator. An error occurred executing the command: [Microsoft.SQLServer.Visualization.Library.DataProviders!DatacenterDashboardDataProvider/GetDatacenterDashboardData] in provider: [Microsoft.SQLServer.Visualization.Library.DataProviders.DatacenterDashboardDataProvider, Microsoft.SQLServer.Visualization.Library.DataProviders, Version=6.6.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]. : StoredProcedureNotAvailable System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Timeout expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.   at Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Presentation.DataAccess.DataProviderCommandMethod.Invoke(CoreDataGateway gateWay, DataCommand command)   at Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Presentation.DataAccess.CoreDataGateway.ExecuteScalarInternal[TResult](DataCommand command)   at Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Presentation.DataAccess.CoreDataGateway.<ExecuteScalarAsync>b__2[TResult](<>f__AnonymousType0`1 data)

    Davy, I have done the same and extended the Log volume to hopefully allow the process to complete. I opened a post on Technet to see if someone else has a solution but nothing. social.technet.microsoft.com/.../sql-2014-6620-filling-sql-dw-logs Hoping someone gets a fix soon as its going to suckballs to remove the SQL  2014 MP due to dependencies on the Run as profile MP and also I created some overrides to a group of servers and that Groups MP is now also a dependency on the SQL 2014 monitoring MP. Thanks, Mike

    good grief, this MP update is horrific. I have the following problem since updating:

  • OperationsManagerDW transaction log neverending query      - fixed by removing the visualizations MP and dependencies.

  • SQL Discoveries all failing     - no idea yet, investigating.

    Hi, I have updated my SQL MP 6.6.0.0 to SQL 6.6.2.0 and I found lot of "MSSQL Discovery Failed alert", So as per the statement I have try to download the new latest version SQL Server MP. But noticed, during the import the latest version is 6.6.0.0, but my current SQL server MP version 6.6.2.0 . so do you want to remove/delete the existing MP and import the 6.6.0.0 version ?

    I have noticed that Always On database space collection isn't working anymore for SQL 2012 since 6.5.4.0. Not being able to see when a database files or log files are running full really is a big issue. I am still running 6.5.1.0 for this specific reason, since it still works in this release, it also seems to be using a different script. Can this please be looked into as well?

    Is anyone experiencing weird behaviour when you use the new DataCenter Dashboard? For example, some group tiles incorrectly display the objects in the groups as 'Unavailable' or 'Not Monitored' even though the groups are properly populated and when you display the members via the traditional method they all are listed as healthy. One example I have is a group I've populated with 15 Windows Service monitors I created, the Windows Service Monitors are working as expected and appear in the Windows Computer's Health Explorer view as healthy, however when I add the group to the dashboard view they are all listed as unmonitored! Very frustrating!! I have a similar issue with groups containing logical drives. Anyone else come across this?

    Installed 6..6.3 into our test environment and the failed discovery issue remains. Dashboards seem to work fine but still monitoring DW for any problems.

    Brian Salter, could you please open a connect issue connect.microsoft.com/.../SC_Public with that issue so you can be contacted. In 6.6.2 there was an improvement in the error handling. There were situations when the script was failing but keep silence, so not problem was reported to SCOM. With the new error handling it reports about a problem in such case. The recommendation is to check the Run AS configuration for failing workflows.
