Decisions and information required

The following checklist details useful reference information for the installation of Orbit:

  • Server name and windows login details for the FastStats Server Email server, SMTP, Port, user, and login details for email services

  • Email server, SMTP, Port, user, and login details for email services

  • Server name and windows login details for the SQL Server

  • Admin login details for SQL Server (you’ll be adding some tables) – you will need to decide what to call the orbit database, we suggest OB_Global as a default. And have all users on your systems connect via the same database

  • Orbit, Config, and Webservice Database names and the FastStats user details for SQL Server (you’ll need this for configuration)

  • user id=[userid];password=[password];initial catalog=WS_[System_name];data source=[server_Name];pooling=true;max pool size=10000;

  • user id=[userid];password=[password];initial catalog=FS_Config;data source=[server_Name];pooling=true;max pool size=10000;

  • user id=[userid];password=[password];initial catalog=OB_Global;data source=[server_Name];pooling=true;max pool size=10000;

  • The URL and/or DNS name you want to use for orbit
