New installation
1. Select an option.
2. Enter the appropriate user credentials. If you are using an existing database, provide the
server and database information.
3. Click Next.
Upgrade
If you previously used Microsoft SQL Express 2005 (SP3 or later), the database is upgraded to
Microsoft SQL Express 2008 R2 SP2 as part of the HP SIM upgrade. This SQL Express upgrade
is required to upgrade Insight Management.
1. If a local/remote database is detected, enter the credentials for the existing database.
2. Click Next. A message appears providing some information about dynamic ports. This message
is informational and does not indicate that dynamic ports are being used.
IMPORTANT: If a supported version of SQL Server is not installed, a message appears
informing you of the impending database upgrade. Accept the upgrade to continue to install
Insight Management. Alternatively, instead of automatically upgrading the database during
the Insight Management installation, you can reject the database upgrade (which cancels the
Insight Management installation.) You can then manually upgrade to a supported version of
database software before restarting the Insight Management Installer.
