You may enter a user name for a different domain by entering a fully-qualified user
name. The fully-qualified user name must be in the format domain\username or
username@domain. If you enter a non-qualified name, the DNS domain will be used.

Configuring SQL protection settings

If you have not done so already, launch the

Protecting a SQL Server workflow

.

To change the default SQL configuration parameters, make sure you have selected a
valid source and target, then click Configure from the Manage SQL page. The
Configure Protection window will appear

The Configure Protection window has tabs for configuring:

Failover settings

Monitor settings

Snapshot settings

Connection settings

Advanced settings

Note:

If any important aspect of your configuration changes (for example, service
account name change, server IP address change, server logical drive
configuration change, recently added server hardware), you should reconfigure
protection and, if possible, not re-use the existing configuration in order to
capture the new configuration.

If you do not need to change the configuration settings,

Validate the configuration

, then

enable protection.

If you have already enabled protection for a connection and need to change the
configuration parameters, you will first need to

disable protection

.
