Guide to Installing SCCM Requirements: SQL Configuration, Active Directory Schema Extending and Windows Server Roles Installation.
SQL Configuration
For normal work, you must use the next memory size for SCCM SQL:
- Minimum 8192 varten "Primary Site";
- Minimum 4096 varten "Secondary Site";
When you use a database server that is co-located with the site server, dedicate 50 percent of the available addressable system memory for SQL Server.
When you use a dedicated SQL Server, dedicate 80 percent of the available addressable system memory for SQL Server.
Configuration Manager requires SQL Server to reserve a minimum of 8 gigabytes (GB) of memory in the buffer pool used by an instance of SQL Server for the central administration site and primary site and a minimum of 4 gigabytes (GB) for the secondary site. This memory is reserved by using the Minimum server memory setting under Server Memory Options and is configured by using SQL Server Management Studio.”

Minun tapauksessani, I have very weak SQL, so I only show where and how to set these limits.
1. Run “Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio";
2. Connect to your “SCCM Instance”. Tulla sisään "Server Name" ja napsauta "Kytkeä”-painiketta;
3. Hiiren oikea painike click on the instance and select “Ominaisuudet";
4. Mene "Muisti" ja aseta"Minimum server memory (in MB)" ja "Maximum server memory (in MB)” according to the information I wrote earlier. Klikkaa "OK”-painiketta;
5. To apply these changes you must restart instance services, you can do it from “Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio". Hiiren oikea painike click on the instance and select “Uudelleenkäynnistää";
6. Klikkaus "Joo” on pop-up windows;
Active Directory schema extending
When you extend the Active Directory schema for System Center 2012 Configuration Manager, you can publish site information to Active Directory Domain Services. Extending the Active Directory schema is optional for Configuration Manager. kuitenkin, by extending the schema you can use all Configuration Manager features and functionality with the least amount of administrative overhead.
If you decide to extend the Active Directory schema, you can do so before or after you run Configuration Manager Setup.
TechNe
1. Log in to your “Domain Controller Schema Master". Mount “*.iso” with SCCM installation files. Mene "<asemakirjain>\SMSSETUP\BIN\X64” and run “extadsch.exe";
2. After step “1” go to “C:\"ja avaa"ExtADSch.log” if all is good you must see the next string;
3. Open your apps list and run “ADSI-muokkaus";
4. Hiiren oikea painike Klikkaa "ADSI-muokkaus" ja valitse "Yhdistää";
5. Leave defaults and click the “OK”-painiketta;
6. Find “CN=System” in the list. Hiiren oikea painike Klikkaa "CN=System", valitse "Uusi” and then “Object";
7. In the list select “Container" ja napsauta "Seuraava”-painiketta;
8. Tulla sisään "Arvo” System Management ja napsauta "Seuraava”-painiketta;
9. Klikkaa "Suorittaa loppuun”-painiketta;
10. Hiiren oikea painike Klikkaa "CN=System Management" ja napsauta "Ominaisuudet";
11. Select “Turvallisuus";
12. Klikkaa "Lisätä”-painiketta;
13. In the “Object Types” add “Tietokoneet", anna SCCM-palvelimesi nimi, ja napsauta "OK”-painiketta;
14. Set the checkmark “Full control” (like on the screenshot) ja napsauta "OK”-painiketta;
Windows Server Roles and Features installation
My deployment scenario:
- SQL 2016 on Windows Server 2016 with separated disks (System, DB’s, Temp);
- SCCM 1606 on Windows Server 2016 with two disks (one for the system and one for data, like updates and apps)
1. Let’s make some tuning of our server. I need to host SCCM data on disk “D“. To do this we must create a blank file “NO_SMS_ON_DRIVE.SMS” in the root of disk “C";
2. Make sure it is blank;
3. Next we need at Windows Server Roles and Features. In the “Palvelimen hallinta” in the upper menu click “Hallitse” and then “Lisää rooleja ja ominaisuuksia";
4. Klikkaa "Seuraava”-painiketta. (you may set the checkmark “Skip this page by default” and this window don’t appear next time);
5. Leave by default “Rooli- tai ominaisuuspohjainen asennus" ja napsauta "Seuraava”-painiketta;
6. Select the target server and click the "Seuraava”-painiketta (I have only one server);
7. Set a check mark on the “Web Server (IIS)” role, in the pop-up window click the “Lisää ominaisuuksia”-painiketta;
” role, in the pop-up window click the “Lisää ominaisuuksia”-painiketta;
8. Set the check mark on “Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)", in the pop-up window click the “Lisää ominaisuuksia”-painiketta;
9. After all steps click the “Seuraava”-painiketta;
10. Set check mark on “.NET Framework 3.5 ominaisuudet” and set check marks, like on the screenshot;
11. Set check mark on “Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS)";
12. In the pop-up window click “Lisää ominaisuuksia";
13. Set the check mark on “Differentiaalin etäpakkaus" ja napsauta "Seuraava";
HUOMAUTUS: I use Server 2016, if you use another Windows Server (2012 tai 2012 R2) you must install WSUS 3.0 Service Pack 2.
14. Let’s configure “IIS Role", ja napsauta "Seuraava”-painiketta;
15. Set check marks, like on screenshots;
16. After all actions click the “Seuraava”-painiketta;
17. Let’s configure “WSUS Role", ja napsauta "Seuraava”-painiketta;
18. Set check marks on “WSUS-palvelut", I use the database on SCCM SQL Server, so I also set the checkmark “SQL Server Connectivity“. (If you want to use a local database for WSUS – don’t set the check mark on SQL and set the checkmark on “WID Connectivity“). Klikkaa "Seuraava”-painiketta;
19. Set the checkmark and enter the path for storing updates (I use “D:\WSUS“). Klikkaa "Seuraava”-painiketta;
20. Tulla sisään "<SQL Server name>\<Instance name>", and click the “Check connection” button to check the connection. If all is good, Klikkaa "Seuraava”-painiketta;
HUOMAUTUS: I don’t have Internet access on this machine, so I need to specify the source path for feature installation (“.NET Framework 3.5“). Click “Specify an alternate source path“;
21. Tulla sisään "<windows source files DVD or *iso disk>\lähteetsxs" ja napsauta "OK”-painiketta;
22. Klikkaa "Asentaa”-painiketta;
23. Installation starts;
24. When the installation is finished, Klikkaa "kiinni”-painiketta;
25. Click on the yellow triangle and then click “Käynnistä asennuksen jälkeiset tehtävät” (finish WSUS installation);
26. Post-installation finished;
27. If you install WSUS with SQL database, go to SQL Server. You will see “SUSDB” file and “SUSDB” database in “SQL Server Management Studio";
Windows ADK installation
Download the installation file from Windows ADK Site. You may install it from the WEB or download files to install it on another computer. Let’s do both options.
2. If you choose the online installation. Run the downloaded file “adksetup.exe“. Select “Install the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit – Windows 10 to this computer“. Klikkaa "Seuraava”-painiketta;
3. Select “Joo" tai "Ei” (read the text in the window to make choice). Klikkaa "Seuraava”-painiketta;
4. Read “License Agreement" ja napsauta "Hyväksyä”-painiketta;
5. Select components required for SCCM successful installation, like in the screenshot. Click the “Install” button to start the installation.
6. If you choose the offline installation. Select a folder to download installation files and click the “Seuraava”-painiketta;
7. Copy downloaded files to the target machine and run “adksetup.exe";
8. Klikkaa "Seuraava”-painiketta;
9. Next repeat steps “3-5";
10. In both variants at the end of installation click the “Close” button. (Also you may explore Windows ADK documentation on MSDN if you need, by setting a checkmark);
HUOMAUTUS: Don’t forget to reboot after installation. It takes a very long time to install.
