SharePoint settings
The SharePoint tab includes options you can use to join or extend the target front-end web server to
the production SharePoint configuration or web farm. The Application Manager determines the
Microsoft SQL server and configuration database used by the source SharePoint web front-end server,
then uses that information to connect the specified target web server to the same SharePoint
configuration. The target web server specified can be local or remote.
The first five fields will be filled in automatically. You can modify these values.
1.
In the Server Name field, enter the NetBIOS or physical name of the target SharePoint web
server.
2.
In the IP Address field, enter the IP address for the target web server.
3.
In the TCP Port field, enter the TCP port to be used for communicating with the target web
server.
4.
In the Config Database Server field, enter the name of the Microsoft SQL Server that hosts the
configuration database.
5.
In the Config Database Name field, enter the name of the configuration database for the
production SharePoint web front-end server.
6.
In the SharePoint Admin Name field, enter the account used to install and configure
SharePoint on the production SharePoint web front-end server. This should be entered as a
fully-qualified domain name (
domain\username
).
7.
In the SharePoint Admin Password field, enter the password for the SharePoint Admin
account.
8.
In the Confirm Password field, re-enter the password.
9.
When you have finished setting the configuration options, click Connect Server.
NOTE:
The target web server must have the same version of SharePoint installed as the
production SharePoint web server. For best results, SharePoint should be installed but
not yet configured on the target web server.
In order to extend the target web server, you will also need to add the Sharepoint
administrator account to the local Domain Admin group on the target server before
you extend the target web front-end server into the farm.
