Collection Server

Ensure each Collection Server computer meets or exceeds the following software requirements. The Collection Server hosts the Collection Service and the Repository databases, which store SQL Compliance Manager configuration and audit data.

If you plan to audit instances running SQL Server 2005 or later, install the Collection Server on a computer hosting the highest version of SQL Server running in your environment. For example, to accept event data from audited instances running SQL Server 2012 SP1, the Repository databases must reside on a SQL Server 2012 SP1 instance.

Note

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