The same account I used to install the first MS , I am using with second MS.
As long as the Database name showed up in the drop down box, means permissions are OK...

I will try it again, and post the event logs

I installed windows server 2012 R2, there is no other application installed on it.
I have an extracted SCOM iso in another computer, copied the extracted files to flash drive and plugged the flush drive to this server..

What is you suggestion ? I know you mentioned permissions, but as I said I am using the same account as the one I have installed and configured the first Management Server.
