Hi!
I am trying to do a split install of vRealize Configuration Manager 5.8 - the web and collector are on a windows server 2012 R2 and the database server is a windows server 2012 R2 with SQL 2008 R2 (all 64 bit).
The validation check for SQL server is not successful. The log file " typicalInstall" under \Appdata\local\temp\_csi_installation indicates that I have and existing VCM database on the SQL server, but this is a fresh install for both VCM and SQL and only the default databases and report database exist on the SQL server.
In the prerequisites section - for VCM database server - I have provided only the SQL server name "SQL-2" and also tried with SQL server name and instance "SQL-2\MSSQLSERVER". But no luck. It says "database validation failed". Attached the screenshot as well.
Below is the error message from the logs. Can anyone please help???
