Collection Server

The Collection Server stores SQL Compliance Manager configurations and audit data. Ensure your Collection Server resides on a version of SQL Server that is greater than or equal to the highest audited SQL Server version. For example, if the most current version of SQL Server that you are auditing is on SQL Server 2016 then your Collection Server instance could be SQL Server 2016 or 2017 but not 2012.

Note

The Repository must reside on a version of SQL Server that is greater than or equal to the highest audited SQL Server version.
