This utility, based on Windows Management Instrumentation technology, is invoked by default at the initial stage of the setup as soon as the Installation Wizard is launched , analyzes status of the target system, and, in cases where unsupported configuration is detected, provides recommendations regarding necessary changes or fixes it automatically, if possible. Depending on the severity of discovered issues or lack of required components and configuration options, SCC might block setup from proceeding.
The availability of some options during the installation depends on meeting certain prerequisites. For example, in order for the "Install as Virtual Server" checkbox to be available on the "Components to Install" page of the Installation Wizard, the target system needs to be set up as a cluster.
Similarly, inclusion of Reporting Services in the installation another option appearing on the same page is possible, provided that Internet Information Services is present since IIS virtual directories are needed for publishing reports and managing Reporting Services. Report Designer requires Internet Explorer 6. We will be covering this and other topics related to Reporting Services in future articles of our series.
The patching process is more streamlined as well as easier to implement and maintain. While in SQL Server , it was possible to incorporate hotfixes and service packs into the setup program, this involved manual changes to the content of original installation media.
Alternatively, you could apply missing hotfixes following the setup; however, this created the potential for mistakes resulting in partially unpatched systems and introduced a period of vulnerability until all patching has been completed and the server restarted.
With SQL Server , you can not only replace older versions of files in their source but also download updates automatically at the time of the installation. The outcome of the setup for each of the components is displayed on the Installation Progress page of the Installation Wizard, both in the graphical form, as a green check mark or a red cross, and as a bit more descriptive status message.
As mentioned before, in case of problems, additional details about their probable cause may be obtained by analyzing the appropriate log files. You should also verify that all necessary services for each installed instance are running this might include not only SQL Server and SQL Server Agent, but also Analysis Services and Reporting Services, provided that you included them as part of your setup. Note that immediately following the installation, SQL Server checks whether the computer name on which it has been installed has changed, and if this is the case, it adjusts its parameters accordingly.
This simplifies image-based deployment, where replicas of a disk containing SQL Server installation are copied across multiple systems. Downtime required for this process has been reduced compared with earlier versions.
