When you click Yes, the wizard will start installing the instances. A

message on the PolyServe Management Console will report that the

operation is in progress. When the operation is complete, a Summary

message will report the number of servers that were installed

successfully.

If the install fails on one or more nodes, the Summary will include a

Details button. Click the button for more information about the cause of

the failure and also check the log file at:

%SYSTEMROOT%\sqlstp.log

Other Installation Tasks

Adjust the Maximum Memory Setting for SQL Server

PolyServe recommends that you reserve approximately 15% of the

system resources for the operating system and Matrix Server. For each

SQL instance installed, you should change the Maximum Memory

default setting for SQL Server from “all” to 85% (or less) of the total

physical RAM on the system.
