Map Default Instances

If your legacy SQL connections are for default instances, use the Default

instance remapping table on the Instance Aliasing window. To create a

mapping to the Virtual SQL Server providing access to the new default

virtual SQL instance, click New. The Add Default Alias window appears.

From legacy IP. Enter the IP address to which clients connected when

using the legacy default instance.

Port. The port used by the legacy default instance must be 1433.

To virtual IP. Enter the IP address used by the Virtual SQL Server

providing the new default virtual SQL instance.

Port. For a SQL Server 2000 instance, type the port number that you

specified when you installed the SQL Server instance on the matrix. For a

SQL Server 2005 instance, type the port number for TCP/IP Sockets that

the SQL Server instance should listen on. (You specified this number on

the Add Virtual SQL Instance window when you added the SQL Server

instance to the Virtual SQL Server.)

Click OK to return to the Instance Aliasing window. Your entry will be
