3.7. Database Preparation Options for First Time Installations
3.7.1. Overview
This step in the installation is to select the database option that you are going to use. The
following window will appear if this is a new installation. For new installations, choose one of
the following three options:
(a) Install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and a New DSS database on this machine
(b) Install new DSS database to an existing SQL Server/SQL Server 2005 Express
Edition on this machine
(c) Attach to an existing DSS database available on my network.
Each of these options is explained in the following sections (marked as a, b, and c). After you
select your option, choose Next.
NOTE: Regardless of the database location, the following apply:
File attributes of .MDF files are set to “writable” mode (disables read-only).
Since the
base structure of databases are copied from CD, the file attribute is set to read-only by
default; the change to a writable setting allows the application to use the database.
The following services are started through registry: INet Uploader, DS2 Printing, and
DS2 Broadcaster (during uninstall, these registry entries are removed).
In SQL Server, the following steps are completed during DSS Install:
o
“DSSUSERROLE” user role will be created.
o
“DS2” login will be created. This is the login used by the DSS server.
o
“DS2” login will be given access to DSS, DSSDL and DSSUSERDIR databases
with DSSUSERROLE, and DB_OWNER permissions.
