I don't really notice anything. We are running our SCCM/SQL virtual on the same box and have 50GB of RAM, and 3 vCPU's assigned. We are in a HyperV environment.

I have a contractor here that helped me get SCCM installed and running initially, and he was cautioning me about the resource usage of having both SQL's on the same box. My SCCM box is virtual, and I currently have 32GB of RAM, and 24 vCPUs assigned to it.

As long as the SQL CE and full blown SQL can co-exist, I'll just install it on my primary server. Thanks Jason!

SQL CE is a personal DB engine much like MS Access and will have no conflict whatsoever which an actual SQL installation. Remember also though that SQL CE is a personal DB engine and not really designed for shared use (once again, just like MS Access). While you can certainly share the DB file between multiple users (even though SCUP itself doesn't explicitly support this), there is no ability for concurrent use so plan accordingly.

I have one SCCM 2012 server at my location, with 14 secondaries throughout the state. However, the local install is using SQL already, so don't think that I should install SCUP on this box, since it uses SQL CE. How are you guys doing it? Joe
