Forefront Server Security Management Console on a backup server: "Password mismatch between the Primary and Backup Servers"
Forefront Server Security Management Console on a backup server: "Password mismatch between the Primary and Backup Servers"
- Can anyone give some guidence on a issue we're having with trying to setup FSSMC with Primary and Backup Servers?
On the Backup server we get the "Password mismatch between the Primary and Backup Servers" error which is covered by the follwoing kb article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946342.
The problem is that the language locales match and are both English. The only thing I can think is that the server language is set to English (NZ) and the SQL instance on that server is set to English (US). These settings are the same on both Primary and Backup servers.
The one thing that stands out is the default Collation setting for the SQL instance is Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and the databases are set to SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS. I've seen in a Stirling forum that this was an issue and it was recommended that the SQL instance was created with the SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation set.
Anyone hit this issue?

- Hi Steve,
I have exactly the same problem in my environment. The default collation settings for my SQL instances are also set as per recommendation. I even uninstalled the FSSMC completely on both the primary and the backup servers and reinstalled it (and memorizing the password :-) ) but even after the re-installation I get the same error message.
So so far I have not yet found any solution for this.

Bjorn
