Microsoft SQL Server database prerequisites and setup.

Microsoft SQL Server Prerequisites

  1. EcoSys is supported on SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation.

  2. Enable the "Allow remote connections to server" setting.

Setting Up the SQL Server Database

  1. Edit the \EcoSys\database\sqlserver\setup\fm_ss_create_db_and_users.sql script:

    1. Change the two "FILENAME" parameters to match the location of the database data and log files. Do not change the names of the files (esfm_dat.mdf and esfm_log.ldf).

    2. If a password other than "fmuser" will be used for the "fmuser" login, modify the portion of the script that creates the "fmuser" login and password (CREATE LOGIN fmuser WITH PASSWORD = 'fmuser').

  2. Execute the fm_ss_create_db_and_users.sql script as SA or a privileged user.

  3. Import the EcoSys Standard Products Database .bak file using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.

  4. Execute the \EcoSys\database\sqlserver\utils\fm_sqlserver_attach_users.sql script as SA or a privileged user. The user and password in the script are hardcoded as "fmuser" so edit prior to running if necessary.

  5. Execute the \EcoSys\database\sqlserver\utils\fm_ss_loopback_fix.sql script as SA or a privileged user.

  6. Execute the \EcoSys\database\sqlserver\utils\fm_ss_updateNextKeyProc.sql script as SA or a privileged user.

  7. The EcoSys Standard Products Database is provided at EcoSys major release (.01) schema versions. If a non-major release of the EcoSys application is being installed, refer to Determining the Database Upgrade Path and Upgrading the Database to determine which database upgrade scripts need to be run,if any.

  8. Execute the \EcoSys\database\sqlserver\utils\fm_ss_job_update_stats.sql script as SA or a privileged user. For additional information on this script, refer to Updating EcoSys Database Statistics section.
