Hi Jeff, Take a look at this blogpost: http://blogs.technet.com/b/servicemanager/archive/2015/07/30/deploying-secondary-management-server-after-sql-2104-upgrade.aspx
There's really not good/easy way to deploy a new installation of SCSM on SQL 2014. As outlined in the blogpost you have do "trick" SCSM to believe that SQL 2012 is present: "In order to get over this issue you can install a dummy instance of SQL2012 on the sql server machine and then install the SM using the command line as given above. Once the installation is succeeded you can remove the dummy instance of SQL 2012." Be sure to read the comment section on the blogpost as well, as there are an additional suggestion there.

Based on the information here: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn281933.aspx SQL 2014 is supported with Update Rollup 6; however, when I attempt to install Service Manager and specify the database server, it returns an error stating that SQL 2008 or 2012 is not installed. Is there any way around this? Thanks, Jeff
