4. Verify storage/Fibre Channel HBAs: a. Maximum queue depth: Ensure that the HP AH402A or AH403A (Emulex) driver options set in LPutil are equal to or greater than the number of physical drives (default = 20). b. Maximum queue depth: For HP AH400A or AH401A (Qlogic) NVRAM, ensure that the Sanblade execution throttle setting is equal to or greater than the number of physical drives (default = 16). c. Enable write cache: It is important to have a cached log for the database. For more information regarding the installation of SQL Server 2005 and tuning of system parameters once installed, refer to the document, Tuning SQL Server 2005 on HP Integrity Servers: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01977135/c01977135.pdf For additional resources to help deploy and maintain SQL Server on HP Integrity servers, refer to the document, HP Integrity Servers and Microsoft SQL Server Smart Resources Card: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01978945/c01978945.pdf Install SQL Server from the Command Prompt To install a standalone instance of SQL Server from the command prompt, do the following: 1. Insert the SQL Server 2005 installation media into the disk drive. 2.

If you are installing from a network share, navigate to the network folder and launch splash.hta. 2. From the autorun dialog, click Run the SQL Server Installation Wizard. 3. On the End User License Agreement page, read the license agreement, and then accept the licensing terms and conditions. Click Next. 4.

Install SQL Server from the Command Prompt
To install a standalone instance of SQL Server from the command prompt, do the following:
1.
Insert the SQL Server 2005 installation media into the disk drive.
2.
For instance-aware components (the Database Engine, SQL Server Agent, Analysis Services,
and Reporting Services) use the following syntax:
Start /wait <CD or DVD Drive>\setup.exe /qb INSTANCENAME=<InstanceName> ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine,
SQL_Replication PIDKEY=<pidkey value with no "-"> SAPWD=<StrongPassword>
SQLACCOUNT=<DomainName\UserName> SQLPASSWORD=<DomainUserPassword>
AGTACCOUNT=<DomainName\UserName> AGTPASSWORD=<DomainUserPassword>
SQLBROWSERACCOUNT=<DomainName\UserName>
SQLBROWSERPASSWORD=<DomainUserPassword>
To install a clustered instance of SQL Server 2005 from the command prompt, do the following:
1.
Insert the SQL Server 2005 installation media into the disk drive.
2.
For a new failover cluster, use the following syntax:
Start /wait <DVD Drive>\setup.exe /qn VS=<VSName>
INSTALLVS=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=<InstanceName>
ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine,Client_Components ADDNODE=<NodeName1,NodeName2>
GROUP=<Diskgroup> IP=<IP,Networkname> ADMINPASSWORD=<StrongPassword>
SAPWD=<StrongPassord> INSTALLSQLDIR=<InstallationPath>
INSTALLSQLDATADIR=<ShareDrivePath> SQLACCOUNT=<domain\user>
SQLPASSWORD=<DomainUserPassword> AGTACCOUNT=<domain\user>
AGTPASSWORD=<DomainUserPassword>
Install SQL Server from the GUI
To install SQL Server from the GUI, follow these steps:
