vRanger 7.8.5 - Installation/Upgrade Guide

Introduction Before you install System requirements and compatibility Installing vRanger Upgrading vRanger

Installing the vRanger database

vRanger utilizes a SQL Server® database to store application and task configuration data. The database can be either the embedded SQL Server Express instance — the default — or a SQL Server database running on your own SQL Server or SQL Server Express instance. For more information on the vRanger database and configuration options, see Installing the vRanger database.

 
* 
NOTE: This step is omitted if an existing SQL Server instance is detected.
1
When the vRanger Database Installation dialog box appears, do one of the following:
•
To proceed with the default, leave Install a new local instance of SQL Server Express selected, and proceed to Step 3.
•
To install vRanger on an existing SQL Server instance, clear Install a new local instance of SQL Server Express, and click Next.
2
Select a server authentication mode:
•
Windows authentication mode: When a user connects through a Windows® user account, SQL Server validates the account name and password using information in the Windows operating system. Windows Authentication uses Kerberos security protocol, provides password policy enforcement (complexity validation for strong passwords), supports account lockout, and supports password expiration.
•
Mixed Mode (SQL Server and Windows authentication and SQL Server Authentication): Enter and confirm the system administrator (sa) password when you select Mixed Mode authentication. Setting strong passwords is essential to the security of your system. Never set a blank or weak sa password.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: If you chose an account for the Quest vRanger Service installation other than the account with which you are currently logged in, select Mixed Mode.
If you selected Mixed Mode, you are prompted to enter a password for the system administrator (sa) account. If you selected Windows authentication mode, the installation continues using the account specified in Entering vRanger service credentials.

Click Next.

Entering vRanger database runtime credentials

The vRanger Database Runtime Credentials dialog box appears. This dialog box allows you to configure different credentials for database installation and for normal runtime operations. In addition, this dialog box is where you configure a connection to an existing SQL Server® database.

1
To select an external database, select the server and database name in the drop-down lists.
 
* 
TIP: If the applicable server is not visible, click the refresh icon to perform another discovery.
When using an external SQL Server, ensure that the following configurations are made.
•
The external SQL Server must have Named Pipes and TCP/IP enabled in SQL Server Configuration Manager. Named Pipes is found under SQL Server Network Configuration, while TCP/IP is under Protocols for Database_Instance_Name. If you update these settings, restart SQL Server.
•
SQL Server Browser services must be running for vRanger to discover the external database.
2
Configure the credentials for your database installation and connection as follows:
•
Database Installation Credentials: If you select Windows, the database installs using the credentials chosen in Entering vRanger service credentials. If you are using SQL Server authentication, the credentials used must have administrative privileges on the SQL Server instance.
•
Runtime DB Connection Credentials: You may choose different credentials for use during normal vRanger operations.
•
If you select Windows, the database installs using the credentials chosen in Entering vRanger service credentials.
•
If you select SQL Server, enter and confirm the system administrator (sa) password when you select Mixed Mode authentication. Setting strong passwords is essential to the security of your system. Never set a blank or weak sa password.

Click Next.

Installing the vRanger Catalog Service

The Quest vRanger Catalog Service provides a searchable catalog of files in cataloged backups. This feature enables faster searches during FLR.

1
When the vRanger Catalog Service dialog box appears, do one of the following:
•
To install the Catalog Service, select Install vRanger Catalog Service.
•
To proceed without installing the Catalog Service, clear the check box, click Next, and proceed to Completing the installation.
 
* 
NOTE: If you have previously installed the Catalog Service, you cannot clear the check box.
2
Choose the credentials to use for the database installation.
Select Use the same credentials as vRanger Database, or configure the credentials for the Catalog database per the following options:
•
Database Installation Credentials: If you select Windows, the database installs using the credentials chosen in Entering vRanger service credentials. If you are using SQL Server® authentication, the credentials used must have administrative privileges on the SQL Server instance.
•
Runtime DB Connection Credentials: You may choose different credentials for use during normal vRanger operations.
•
If you select Windows, the database installs using the credentials chosen in Entering vRanger service credentials.
•
If you select SQL Server, enter the credentials for vRanger to use when connecting to the vRanger database. If the account entered does not exist, it is created.
