You must complete the following tasks before you can install Avalanche with SQL Server:
| • | Install Microsoft SQL Server and obtain DBMS licenses. |
| • | Create the Avalanche databases. The databases must be named avalanche53 and avastats53. |
| • | Create the login role for the databases. |
Note: Avalanche does not support Windows Authentication for the SQL Server login.
| • | If you are installing Avalanche in a different location than the database server, you must configure the server to allow remote access. |
| • | Install the Microsoft SQL Server Native Client and SQL Server Command Line Query Tool for your edition of SQL Server on the machine where you will be installing Avalanche. You must use the Client and Query Tool specific to your edition. If you are using SQL Server 2005, these files will be sqlncli.msi and SQLServer2005_SQLCMD.msi. If you are using SQL Server 2008, these files will be sqlncli.msi and SqlCmdLnUtils.msi. |
Note: When you install the utilities for SQL Server 2008, you must add the path to the sqlcmd.exe file to your system PATH variable.
| • | If there is a Guest account on the computer where you plan to install, it should be disabled. |
| • | Ensure there are no active connections to the database. |
When you have completed these tasks, proceed to Completing an External Database Installation.
