• Create APPIQ_USER account on SQL Server database you want to monitor.
• You should have already installed the database for the management server.
• Make sure you have all the necessary information before you begin the installation. Read
through the following steps before you begin.
To create the APPIQ_USER account for SQL Server:
1. To run the script on Microsoft Windows, go to the DBIQ\sqlserver\win directory on the
CIM Extensions CD-ROM.

2. Verify you have the password to the SA user account.
You are prompted for the password for this user account when you run the script.
3. Run the CreateSQLServerAct.bat script on Microsoft Windows on the computer with the
SQL Server database.
The script creates a user with login to master and select privilege on data dictionary tables on a

a. Open SQL Server Enterprise Manager.
b. Expand the user interface for SQL Server Enterprise Manager. Then, expand the specific SQL
server and select Security.
c. Double-click Logins and view the list of users authorized to access the SQL Server.
