Title: Complete newbie question with Windows server install
Post by: LogicalNZ on August 12, 2017, 06:40:54 AM
Hey so the complete Windows server install, will it install a database server as well?

If so which one?

If not what are most installing?

With thanks

Hello!

no, NetXMS will not install a DB engine. You have to install the DB engine yourself, before installing NetXMS. NetXMS is compatible with many different backends, the type of engine to use depends on your knowledge and expected load (most of the free engine such as MySQL Community edition or MSSQL Express are perfectly fine for normal usage).

Regards,
Marco

I run on Windows with SQL Express 2012. 200 Nodes. 7 GB database. No performance issues.
