Install NDS

Installation user account prerequisites:

As an installer, you must have the following:

Microsoft SQL Server

sysadmin and

Windows

administrator rights.

New database installation requires that the

Microsoft SQL Server

service account have permission to write the file system. Ensure the

Microsoft SQL Server

service account has that, or change it to Local System account.

For custom ngad: A password for the ”NGAD,” the owner of the

AtHoc

“ng” databases. If the ngad user is not created, the installer will automatically create the ngad login.

Full control for the directory where the database installation scripts are located. Right–click on the directory and open the properties to verify.

Full control of the database directory folder that contains the .ldf, .mdf, and .ndf files. Right–click on the directory and open the properties to verify.

The database server must be installed first when installing separate application and database servers. When installing both application and database servers on the same server (a “combo install”), they can be installed at the same time.

Start the installation by double–clicking the setup file.
