Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 Installing Guide
2-14
Note These components are required before Microsoft Dynamics CRM can be
installed. You can exit Setup and install the components manually, or select
Install. The Next button on this page is disabled until Setup detects that these
components are installed.
Installing these components may require that you restart the computer. If you are
prompted to restart the computer, do so, and then start Setup again.
The installation of Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 can take up to 10 minutes to
install.
9. If you are installing Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 Enterprise, the Specify Setup Type page
appears. Click Typical to install all server roles on the computer or click Custom for a specific
server role group. When you click Custom, there are two server role groups available,
Application Server Role, which has services that provide users access to data and content, and
Platform Server Role, which has services that process data. For more information about server
roles, see the Planning Deployment chapter in the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 Planning Guide.
Important When you select Custom, Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server Setup
does not create an organization database during the installation. If the
deployment does not have an organization database, you must use Deployment
Manager to create a new organization. For information about how to create a
new organization, see the Deployment Manager Help.
10. On the Specify Deployment Options page, if Setup detects an existing deloyment, you can
select whether you want to create a new deployment or connect to an existing deployment. In
Enter or select the name of the computer that is running SQL Server box, type or select the
instance of SQL Server that will be used to store the Microsoft Dynamics CRM databases.
Important
When you select Create new databases, Setup creates a new organization
database using the name that you specified and a configuration database using
the name MSCRM_CONFIG. An error message will appear if an
MSCRM_CONFIG database already exists. You must delete this database to
create a new MSCRM_CONFIG database.
When you select Connect to existing databases, Setup requires that a
Configuration Database (MSCRM_CONFIG) already exist on the computer that
is running SQL Server. An error message will appear if an MSCRM_CONFIG
database does not already exist.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0 or earlier version databases are not supported.
11. On the Specify the Organization Name page, type the name of your organization in the
Display name box. In the Name box you can keep the name that Setup presents or you can type
a unique name that must be limited to 30 characters. Spaces and extended characters are not
allowed. In the Database collation list, select the database collation that the organization
database will use to sort and compare data characters. Then, click Browse, select the ISO
currency code that you will use as the base currency for the organization in the list, click OK, and
then click Next.
