Installation Preparation
c. Verify that the SQL Server name in the Server field of the first dialog box is
correct.
d. Make sure the Change the default database to field in the third dialog points to
the new database.
e. Setup configures all other SRMDB data source settings during installation.
IMPORTANT: Modifying any data source settings after installation will result in
unpredictable behavior.
6. Optional configuration steps include:
a. Define the database maintenance configuration.
b. There are two SRM maintenance tasks:
c. SRM Maint SRM Server computer_name_SRMDB, which runs by default at
1:15 a.m.
d. SRM Maint SRM Server computer_name_SRMDB, which runs by default at
2:40 p.m.
e. See Appendix A “Database Concepts” for the default database maintenance
configurations set during installation.
f. Make sure you have adequate transaction log backup space. SRM does not
provide transaction log management. If you choose to save and back up
transaction logs, you must ensure adequate space for SRM to write its scan
data to the database.
g. The frequency of your updates depends on your scan schedules. If you alter
SRM’s default scan schedules, you might need to change your maintenance
schedules. The volume of updated data depends on the size of your
installation.
h. Configure database security to meet your specific needs. SRM’s only security
requirement is database access granted to the SRM Service Login Account.
SRM’s installation program grants this permission. Database security is
detailed in Appendix A “Database Concepts.”
