vCenter Configuration Manager Security Environment Requirements

TECHNICAL WHITE PAPER / 20

9.0 SQL Server Preparation

9.1 Follow Microsoft SQL Server configuration best practices

Microsoft provides both guidelines and an auditing tool that ensure the secure installation and operation of SQL Server.

These are available for SQL Server 2000

, 2005

, and 2008

Also, a secure installation of VCM pays particular attention to the Security Best Practices

items regarding patching,

physical security, service packs, and firewalls.

9.2 Protect SQL Server from connections originating outside the server zone

Connections to VCM's SQL Server database from outside the server zone must be prevented. Even authorized VCM

users should not connect directly to the database from remote locations. A firewall is one means of accomplishing

this.10 The general technique is to block TCP port 1433 and UDP port 1434.

9.3 Forbid direct SQL Server login by VCM users

Even from within the server zone, regular VCM users must not directly connect to the VCM database using tools like

the Query Analyzer. Such connections bypass the administrative safeguards afforded by the VCM UI.
