   • Enter the Folder Sync account user name in the format Domain\ServiceAccount

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

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

    SQL_computer_name\

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

    Note:

    If you later 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.

12. Click Next. The Archive Accelerator Configuration Wizard displays your configuration settings.
13. Click Next to begin the configuration.

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

14. If you saved any modified .config files when you uninstalled Folder Sync, you can edit the new .config files to reinstate your changes. The new .config files are located in the Folder Sync [version] installation folder, typically C:\Program Files\ArchiveTools\ArchiveTools Folder Sync.

    Note:

    Save a backup copy of the new .config files before you make any changes.

15. Now that the installation and initial configuration is complete you must specify the new Folder Sync task settings for on-premises Exchange synchronization.
