SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 SMS Agent Host making Server 2012 R2 slow slow slow

It happened that SCCM client was pushed to all servers (2012 R2)

It made all servers slow to a crawl. Unrelated to what duties they perform

Anybody noticed the same? Anybody has any solution? (an obvious one is uninstall)

Ok I will bite, why do you think that the CM12 client is making the server slow?

What does the log file say it is doing?

Did you install SCEP too?

Do you have SW inventory enabled? if so why?

What is slow the CPU, RAM or Disk IO?

Like Garth said, have you determined what process(es) are actually causing the performance issue? What component is affected (CPU? Disk? Memory? Network?)?

Plain & simple. SCEP was there LONG before SCCM client.

Stop the service & instantly all is back to normal (does that indicate the very service?, it does to me)

That is the funny part, CPU,memory, disk are NOT any different in either case.

But stopped service makes the whole difference

No, I do not have software INV enabled (why would I?)

Without more details, there is way little that anyone can do to help you.

What exactly is the service doing? Have you review the log files?

How can the CPU, Disk IO, RAM, not be busy?
