Installing Opalis Part II
In the previous post I have show you how to install the Opalis Management server.
Let’s install the datastore now. The Database Configuration utility prepares the database where Opalis Integration Server stores information about your Policies. This database is called the Datastore. That’s the database where configuration information, Policies, and logs are stored.
When setting up the datastore you can choose between an Oracle server or a SQL server. In my lab environment I only have a SQL so I’m going to install the datastore or database on my sql server.
Click Configure the Datastore in step 2 of the Install Opalis Integration Server splash screen. The Database Configuration dialog appears.
On the Database Type page Type tab, select the Microsoft SQL Server option and click Next. The Server Details page appears.
In the Server field, type the name of the server that is running the SQL Server database that will host the Datastore. Do not use 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1'.
Create a new database - Select this option to create a new Management Database and type a name for this database.
In the Part III of this install guide we will install a License.
Thanks,
