- Wei has a new sample OS summary dashboard, which could be very beneficial with your tuning actions: https://blogs.msdn.com/b/wei_out_there_with_system_center/archive/2015/06/01/opsmgr-sample-os-summary-dashboard-with-blue-bar-columns.aspx

- Approved has the new Health Check dashboard, which gives you a 1-page overview of your SCOM environment: https://www.approvedconsulting.com/downloads

This information should help you troubleshoot SQL time-out scenarios.

For all the details please see the following:

There are many posts about this all over the internet explaining the most complicated things.

In my case, it was actually very easy: IE is not to blame, it was SCEP (System Center Endpoint Protection) - also known as your anti-virus.

The resolution: uninstall SCEP, check with an online virusscanner (that you can find using your favorite Search Engine such as Bing) that you don't have rootkits or other viruses, and install SCEP again. Done.
