Set up an identity management server: SQL Server 2016 or 2017
Note
Sql Server 2017 setup procedure does not differ from Sql Server 2016 setup procedure.
Note
This walkthrough uses sample names and values from a company called Contoso. Replace these with your own. For example:
- Domain controller name - corpdc
- Domain name - contoso
- MIM Service Server name - corpservice
- MIM Sync Server name - corpsync
- SQL Server name - corpsql
- Password - Replace with your own strong password
Important
MIM 2016 SP2 supports SQL AlwaysOn Availability Group (AoAG) listeners with RegisterAllProvidersIP option set to 0, meaning that SQL Server AoAG cross-subnet failover is not currently supported.
Important
SQL Transparent Data Encryption is supported by MIM Synchronization Service and MIM Service and Portal components with MIM SP2 or later builds.
