Template Name: Enter a descriptive name for the template being created.

SQL Server: When you open the Skype for Business auditing wizard, the SQL Server and Instance hosting Central Management Store are retrieved from Active Directory and automatically populated on the page.

However, if the Microsoft Skype for Business Server and the coordinator are deployed in different Active Directory forests, enter the Central Management Store (CMS) SQL Server fully qualified domain name and select the SQL Instance type (Default or Named SQL Instance) to continue.

SQL Instance Credentials: Select the CMS SQL database authentication type and enter the credentials required to connect to the Central Management Store database server.

•
Login ID: The CMS database Login ID.
•
Password: The CMS database password.
•
Domain: The CMS database domain.

Test Database Credentials: (Optionally) Select to validate the credentials when the template is created to ensure that the database can be accessed.

NOTE: If a trust does not exist between the CMS SQL Server's domain and the coordinator's domain where the client is connected, the test for Windows Authentication may fail even though the CMS do credentials are valid.

Agent Configuration: The agent server is automatically populated with the SQL server name if the agent is deployed on it.
