Environment

ITMS 8.5, 8.6

Cause

The customer disabled TLS 1.0, leaving only TLS 1.1 and 1.2 enabled on both the SQL and SMP servers.

This is due to the SQLOLEDB provider not supporting TLS 1.2. If TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 are not present or enabled on the server it will break the provider's function, causing an error to appear. 

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/kb3135244-tls-1-2-support-for-microsoft-sql-server-e4472ef8-90a9-13c1-e4d8-44aad198cdbe

Resolution

To resolve this, Microsoft has published the MSOLEDSQL driver, which features backward compatibility with SQLOLEDB and can be used as a replacement. To do this, download the driver from Microsoft and install it on the server, then change the connection string provider from SQLOLEDB to MSOLEDBSQL and recycle the site's application pool. In the Symantec Management Console, if the MS SQL Server database is selected as the data source type, the console is hard-coded to use SQLOLEDB as a provider. It is required to change the provider to use 'Directly enter Connection String' in the data source type and specify a connection string using MSOLEDBSQL. This requires entering a username and password in plain text. Developers are working on a change in the upcoming release 8.7 to not require a password in plain text so it is hidden from users.
 
 
Starting with our ITMS 8.7 Release, you should be able to choose the desired connection string provider. Now OLEDB data source has "Provider Name" field where the default value is "SQLOLEDB" for "MS SQL Server database" source type.
 
You can change/use another specified provider like "MSOLEDBSQL" and it should work. You can specify a valid Windows and SQL user for authentication.

You can run on Microsoft SQL Management Studio the following query to see available providers:

EXEC master.dbo.sp_MSset_oledb_prop
