    • Enter the password for the Folder Sync service account, and then re-enter the password to confirm it.

15. The ArchiveAccelerator Configuration Wizard starts, and prompts you for the SQL instance to use for the ArchiveAccelerator configuration database.

    Specify the SQL Server instance in the following format:

    Note:

    To use the default SQL instance, omit the SQL_instance and specify only the following:

    SQL_computer_name\

16. The Folder Sync database configuration wizard asks if you want to use the existing ArchiveAccelerator database. Click Yes to use the existing Folder Sync database and preserve its existing data.

    Note:

    If later you install Folder Sync on additional servers for load sharing or redundancy, specify the same SQL instance for each installation of Folder Sync. All of the Folder Sync installations must all share the same SQL server database.

17. Click Next. The Archive Accelerator Configuration Wizard displays your configuration settings.
18. Click Next to begin the configuration.

    The Archive Accelerator Configuration Wizard notifies you when the configuration is complete.

    Now that the installation and initial configuration is complete you must review the Folder Sync task configuration settings, and make any required updates to these settings in the management console.
