Answer : System Center Essentials 2010 - Unable to connect to the Virtual Machine manager server.
Change the account the SQL Service uses to a domain user account, and also check the ownership (dbowner) of the SQL database VMM is using. Change this to the "sa" user or any other user with appropriate permissions.
Restart service to take effect.
