• Install and configure Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, the database server
used by the Recording Archive Service.
• Install the Recording Archive Service.
Configuring the Recording Archive Service

• Setting up automatic or manual archiving.
• Creating archive user accounts, which allow users to browse and act on archive
recordings.
Requirements
Archive server PC requirements
Caution: The Recording Archive Service should be installed on the archive server, a separate
PC—not the Wave Server. Also, the archive server PC must be on your LAN—it cannot be
remotely connected via the Internet.
The Recording Archive Service runs on a separate PC for the following reasons:
• For reliability, since it has its own CPU, disk space, and database server requirements.
• To be able to handle the resource-intensive archiving process without negatively
impacting Wave ISM performance, especially if you are archiving mailbox recordings in
MP3 format. (For more about supported archived file formats, see “Minimum archive
folder disk space requirements” on page 10-4.)
• To be able to archive mailbox recordings from multiple Wave ISMs.
