Notes:
n Due to latency effects, SolarWinds does not recommend installing your SQL Server
and your SolarWinds UDT server or additional polling engine in different locations
across a WAN. For more information, see SolarWinds Knowledge Base article Can I
install my Server or Additional Polling Engine and my Orion Platform database
(SQL Server) in different locations across a WAN?
n Either mixed-mode or SQL authentication must be supported.
n If you are managing your SolarWinds UDT database, SolarWinds recommends you
install the SQL Server Management Studio component.
n If your SolarWinds UDT product installs SQL Server System CLR Types, a manual
restart of the SQL Server service for your SolarWinds UDT database is required.
n Use the following database select statement to check your SQL Server version,
service pack or release level, and edition:
select SERVERPROPERTY ('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'),
SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')

Note: Due to intense I/O requirements, a RAID 1+0 drive is strongly recommended the
SQL Server database and SolarWinds UDT data and log files. RAID 5 is not recommended
for the SQL Server hard drive. The SolarWinds UDT installer needs at least 1GB on the
drive where temporary Windows system or user variables are stored. Per Windows
standards, some common files may need to be installed on drive as your server
operating system.

The Configuration Wizard installs the following required x86 components if they are not found on your
SolarWinds UDT database server:
n SQL Server System Common Language Runtime (CLR) Types. SolarWinds products use secure SQL
CLR stored procedures for selected, non-business data operations to improve overall performance.
