Installing and Configuring on Windows Environments
Figure 3.78: Indicating the name of the new database that is to be created
6. Since a new database instance can be created only by an administrator of the database server,
next specify the user name and password for the database administrator. If Windows Authentication
is enabled on the MS SQL server, then ensure that the credentials of a valid Windows domain
user with database administrator privileges are provided in Figure 3.79. Also, make sure that the
user name is of the format domainname\username. For eg., if the name of the database
administrator is dbadmin and the domain name is chi, the user name you specify in Figure 3.79
should be: chi\dbadmin.
On the other hand, if Mixed Mode Authentication is enabled on the MS SQL server, then the database
administrator name that you specify need not necessarily be preceded by the domain name. In
this case therefore, your user name specification can be of either of the following formats:
username or domainname\username.
However, if SQL Server Authentication is enabled on the MS SQL server, then the database
administrator name should not be prefixed by a domain name. Your specification should then be only,
username.
