Chapter 2: Install SQL Server 22

Location of media: Specify the location of the SQL Server 2000 setup files.

If you are installing from the SQL Server 2000 distribution media, it

should be placed in a local drive on one of the nodes in the matrix. If you

are not installing from CD, the setup files must be in a location that can be

accessed by the current node.

NOTE: MxDB for SQL Server cannot copy from a UNC share. It can copy

only from a local CD/DVD or a local drive to the SAN.

Node containing media: This is the node containing the media. If you are

installing from CD or DVD, you can click the Search Media button to

have Matrix Server look for the media. (It will scan all nodes in the

matrix.)

Copy to: Specify a folder to store the SQL Server setup files that will be

copied. (The folder will be created if it does not exist.) The folder must be

on a PSFS filesystem that can be accessed by all nodes in the matrix. You

can click the Browse button (labeled “...”) to locate the folder.
