Error 25156. Failed to create MOM database error when installing SCOM 2007. Error Code: -2147217900.

  • Article

You may experience this error when installing the SCOM database to a SQL 2005 cluster.

**Run the installation on the SQL node that hosts the Virtual Node**  

 

clip_image001

 

This error is caused when SQL 2005 is missing disk dependencies within the SQL 2005 Group. 

 

The Fix:

1.  Within the cluster administrator take the SQL group offline.

 

**If the disks are missing you MUST take the SQL group offline in order for any "new" disks to be recognized. You will not be prompted to take it offline either.... :(

 

2.  Properties of SQL server - Dependencies tab -> make sure that all disks are listed.

 

You should have a SQL Network name dependency, and the Physical disk should be listed here as well.

 

3.  If the disks are not there - add them - bring the cluster back on-line

4.  Re-run the SCOM installation

    i have to admit, I had a "-" in the DB name, that led to this error.

    I found that since I was doing an dvanced setup and placing these in folders that were not already created it failed. Once I pre-created the folders for data and logs it installed perfectly. this is on Windows 2003 R2 x64 Ent SP2 single server with SQL 2005 x64 SP2

    My fix was same as the previous post.  I didn't have a standalone server, but wasn't installing the datawarehouse in a cluster server.  All I needed to do was manually create the path and the install was fine.

    I found this is a problem when using the advanced options in the installer. You must first create the log and data sub-directories when running the advanced install with SCOM / Reporting. Windows Server 2008 x64 / Sql 2005 x64 - Standalone System Center

    I had the same problem, using the advanced option. Creating the folders prior to the installation solved it. Thanks Guru!!!
