SD+ installation: remote MSSQL 2005 in seperate instance?
Hi,
we are currently installing SD+ on a debian linux machine.
i have questions about this:
1) if I download SD+ from the site now, is this already the latest 6003 version?
2) we want to install SD+ on linux and install the database on a remote x64 MSSQL 2005 server instead of MySql locally. However I cannot get it to connect to the database. We have created a seperate instance for the servicedesk database and want to connect to this.
In my opinion I have to choose both the servername and the instance name during the installation so in the "server" field I would add something like: hostname.domainname\instance-name but this is not working, at startup it says it cannot connect to the database.
How can I connect to the MSSQL DB? I cannot find any MSSQL stuff in the manual yet.
3) if I can get this to work do I have to install all over again or can I just change the database connection settings?
4) are there general MSSQL settings/paramters/configuration tips on how to create and configure the MSSQL database? We have created it with default settings now and do not know if this is optimal?
thanks,
stefan
