  Download Additional Required Application - SQL Server

SurveilStar monitoring system requires a SQL data server to store and feed the collected data. The server can be deployed on a dedicated computer or any computer deemed appropriate to be used as a data server. In choosing SQL Server application, you can select one of the free editions or pay to buy the enterprise edition. When selecting a version of SQL Server, you should review and follow the installation instructions suggested by Microsoft.

Note:  Before installing SQL Server, you may need to update Windows Installer, .Net Framework and Windows PowerShell.

Server Options: Version after 3.11 supports MSDE as the built-in database engine. For data size less than 2G bytes, No other database systems such as SQL Server are required. We recommend use this engine when 5 or less computers are being monitored and snapshot capture is not enabled.

If you use SQL Server 2005 SP1 or above, please make sure you follow the instructions in the manual since you need to manually set configurations in some important steps, otherwise, wrong configuration may lead to server launch failure. When using SQL Server 2005 SP1 or above as database server, please uncheck MSDE when you install the SurveilStar server.

Note:  Version after 3.11 supports MSDE as the built-in database engine. For data size less than 2G bytes, No other database systems such as SQL Server are required.
