name, password, and domain to be used for a SQL Server

installation or upgrade.

User name: a-z, 0-9, underscore, space

Password: a-z, 0-9, underscore

Domain: a-z, 0-9, dash, period, open and close parentheses

The maximum number of characters that can be specified for a

19632 SQL Server 2005 instance does not start

If the computer name for a node has ever been changed, the SQL

2005 instances installed on that node may not start in the

following circumstances:

• During virtualization

• During failover

• After the upgrade to MxDB for SQL Server 3.6

Workaround. Change the service account group names to match

the current name of the node. Next, remove the node from the

domain and then rejoin it. The SQL Server 2005 instances will

now start properly.
