Hi
I am setting up an SCCM test environment and I have installed the WSUS server role on a Windows Server 2012 R2 server which also serves as my primary site server. I am running the database for SCCM and WSUS on 2 separate named instances on a SQL 2012 SP1 server.
I noticed in the add server roles wizard and in the post-deployment tasks that WSUS was unable to connect to the reserved instance unless I turned off the Windows firewall on the SQL server. However I can not seem to find which additional port I have to open for the WSUS server to be able to connect to the remote database.
So far, I have opened the following ports on my SQL server:
80, 8530 for HTTP connections
443, 8531 for HTTPS connections
1443 to test if the default port was used
50001 for the SCCM instance
50002 for the WSUS instance
50003 for the SQL Server Broker
Also port 135, 137, 139 and 445 are allowed.
In the add server roles wizard I got an error (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server). My guess here is that the wizard tries to connect using named pipes after trying TCP/IP (I have disabled the use of named pipes).
Anyone that has any idea what additional port(s) I need to open?
Thanks!
