Prerequisite

Complete installation of same CDP version must be performed on the SQL Server instance. Refer to Quick Start for details.

Steps

1. Double-click the setup.exe to launch the CipherTrust Database Protection for MS SQL Server InstallShield Wizard and click Next.

   

   Note

   If the installer detects that CDP is already installed on some instance of SQL Server, the installer prompts you to install CDP on other instances of SQL Server or to update/maintain the existing installation.

2. Select Install a new instance of this application and click Next.

   Note

   If the installer does not detect CDP, then the above prompt does not appear.

   It is recommended that you accept the default Instance ID. Once you accept the Instance ID, you should not change it. If you change your Instance ID, you must drop and recreate any existing user mappings for this SQL Server instance from the CipherTrust Manager UI.

   If you receive the following error message: Unable to open OLE32.DLL. Can’t find file!

   Note

   You might change the default Instance ID if the database is involved in replication activities such as log shipping. In that case, the Instance ID should be modified so that all databases in the replication group have the same Instance ID.
