SCOM 2012 SQL Express with Advanced Services R2 SP1 Compatible?

Hi,

This is just a general informational inquiry.

Is there a way to have SCOM 2012 run on SQL EXPR with ADV services R2 SP1?

If not, can I have my primary Management server run on a server that runs Full SQL 2008 R2 and have a secondary management Server run on a different server that is running SQL Express with Advanced services R2 SP1. And then use the secondary management server to connect to all the client servers?

Kind Regards,
