Before You Begin: Installation Prerequisites and Recommendations

5.2.2 Important Settings for MS SQL Server
MS SQL is not included with Sentral. It is assumed that the database installer has adequate knowledge
about MS SQL and your environment to perform the installation. Configure MS SQL as appropriate for
your environment. If you are unsure about any settings, ClearCube recommends accepting default
installation settings, with the following exception:
When installing MS SQL, enable mixed-mode authentication.
5.3 Virtual Machine Snapshots (Optional)
If you are installing Sentral Server on a virtual machine (VM) a best practice is to create a snapshot of
the VM immediately after installing Sentral Server and applying any patches or updates (if applicable). If
the need arises, this step can help to return the VM to known, pristine state.
