Configuring the Orchestrator Database Connection
The Orchestrator server requires a database in which to store data. To establish a connection with the database,
you must configure the connection parameters.
Install a database and create a new database for Orchestrator. For more information, see “Orchestrator Database
Setup,” on page 20. Configure the database for remote connection. For an example of configuring SQL Server
Express for remote connection, see “Configure SQL Server Express to Use with Orchestrator,” on page 48.
Configure SQL Server Express to Use with Orchestrator
You can use Microsoft SQL Server Express in small-scale environments.
Orchestrator can work with SQL Server Express when the deployment does not exceed 5 hosts and 50 virtual
machines.
To use SQL Server Express with Orchestrator, you must configure the database to enable TCP/IP.
Procedure
1 Log in as an administrator to the machine on which SQL Server Express is installed.
2 Click Start > All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 > Configuration Tools > SQL Server
Configuration Manager.
3 Expand SQL Server Network Configuration in the list on the left.
4 Click Protocols for SQLEXPRESS.
5 Right-click TCP/IP and select Enable.
6 Right-click TCP/IP and select Properties.
7 Click the IP Addresses tab.
8 Under IP1, IP2, and IPAll, set the TCP Port value to 1433.
9 Click OK.
10 Click Server Services on the left.
11 Restart the SQL Server.
What to do next
Configure the Orchestrator database connection parameters.
