Completing the
installation of IMPAX
on an AS300 server
After the installation and preliminary setup of IMPAX on an AS300 server, whether in a single-host,
multi-host, or mixed-host configuration, additional procedures are required.
Changing the SQL Server administrator (sa) password1.
This topic applies only to a single-host server (including standalone and single-server
configurations) and to the Database Server in a multi-host configuration.
The IMPAX installation changes the default sa password to a randomly generated string of characters.
This greatly increases the security of the system; however, the password can still be obtained through
other methods.
To ensure that your system is as secure as possible, we recommend updating the sa password to a
password that is known only by the site administrator.
Note:
Do this only after the Application Server software has been installed and configured.
To ensure that the password is as secure as possible:
• The password must be at least eight characters long.
• The password must contain characters from at least three of the following five categories:
• Uppercase characters (A to Z)
• Lowercase characters (a to z)
• Digits (0 to 9)
