• Windows Deployment Services (WDS) on Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2)

servers.

-OR-

SIS on Windows Storage Server 2003 R2.

Note

If WDS and SIS are not already installed, DPM Setup prompts you for the Microsoft

Windows Server 2003 product CD during the installation.

• Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.
• Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 for Windows Server 2003. (IIS 6.0 is not installed on

Windows Server 2003 by default.)

• IIS 7.0 for Windows Server 2008 (Pre-Release version). (IIS 7.0 is not installed on Windows

Server 2008 by default. If IIS is not installed before installing SQL Server 2005, SQL Server

will not install SQL Server Reporting Services.)

Caution

This release of DPM 2007 does not support a Windows Server 2008 installation in a

production environment.

Important

In addition to the default components that IIS 7.0 installs, DPM requires all IIS 7.0

components. For more information, see "Installing the Required Components for

Windows Server 2008" in

• Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Workstation components.

You can use an existing remote instance of SQL Server for your DPM database. If you

choose to use a remote instance of SQL Server, you must install sqlprep.msi.

To use an instance of SQL Server on a remote computer, run sqlprep.msi, which is located

on the DPM product DVD in the DPM2007\msi\SQLprep folder.

Verify that the user account you will be using to run the SQL Server service and the SQL

Server Agent service has read and execute permissions to the SQL Server installation

location.

Note

The remote instance of SQL Server cannot be on a computer that is running as a domain

controller.

• Microsoft SQL Server 2005 with Reporting Services.

If SQL Server Reporting Services is installed on the remote SQL Server, DPM Setup will use

that Reporting Service. If SQL Server Reporting Services is not installed on the remote

computer running SQL Server, you must install and configure the service on the remote

computer running SQL Server.
