        Hi,Same issue in our SQL Server 2014 environment with 6.7.1.0 (CTP 2.1). A lot of bugs in combination with Always On has already been fixed in this CTP, but this bug is confusing, because it doesn't appear on every replica. Did you already fix this?Do you know a timeline for a new CTP or RTM? Thanks!

          We released the RTM version 6.7.2.0 this week. It should be fixed there. Could you try and let us know if you still see the issue? Thanks.

      Please email us at sqlmpsfeedback@microsoft.com with additional details on your case:1. How often do such events appear in the log?2. How was your AG configured (number of replicas, secondaries are readable or not)?3. Was there an outage of Windows Cluster service or a system reboot?4. Was a failover triggered before these events became appearing in the log?Also, if it's possible, attach Application, System, and Operations Manager logs exported from agents where replicas of AG are installed.

    Hi,Can not import on SCOM 2007 R2 ? Not compatible ?
    • Anonymous
      June 03, 2016
      It depends on which MP you are trying to import.Any of the SQL MPs can be imported on SCOM 2007 R2 and SCOM 2012 RTM but without dashboards. Requirements for dashboards is SCOM 2012 SP1 and newer.Replication MPs can be imported to SCOM 2012 starting with RTM, without dashboards as well.Please let us know if you see these configurations not working. Thanks.

          Those should have worked. We cannot repro this in our test environment. Could you share the error messages you are getting? Either here or email us at sqlmpsfeedback@microsoft.com. Thank you.

      Probably, you see these alerts for 32-bit SQL Server instances installed on 64-bit Windows. SQL MPs do not support such configuration, only 32 on 32 or 64 on 64. After releasing 6.7.1.0, we disabled performance rules and some monitors for 32 on 64 configuration to avoid the appearance of these alerts. You can email us at sqlmpsfeedback@microsoft.com and request a version with disabled workflows to try it before we publish GA.If you see these alerts for 64 on 64 instances, please contact us at sqlmpsfeedback@microsoft.com and we'll look more deeply into your problem.

        Thanks, Alex. It seems you are right, it is 32 on 64. I wrote a request to the specified email address.

      We plan to move to a newer scripting language but we are not close enough to commit to a technology or date yet. Was there a particular concern or issue you have? Thanks.
