Sample server XML configuration file

  • Article

The following configuration file installs an update file that is located on an internal share, installs a Full Server with all Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2011 components, and creates new databases on the default instance of a SQL Server that is named SQLServer:

<CRMSetup>

<Server>

<Patch update="true">\\server\share\patchfile.msp</Patch>

<LicenseKey>XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX</LicenseKey>

<SqlServer>SQLServer</SqlServer>

<Database create="true"/>

<Reporting URL="https://MyReportingServer/ReportServer"/>

<OrganizationCollation>Latin1_General_CI_AI</OrganizationCollation>

<basecurrency isocurrencycode="USD" currencyname="US Dollar" currencysymbol="$" currencyprecision="2"/>

<Organization>Organization Display Name</Organization>

<OrganizationUniqueName>Organization_Name</OrganizationUniqueName>

<OU>OU=value,DC=subdomain,DC=subdomain,DC=subdomain,DC=com</OU>

<WebsiteUrl create="true" port="5555"> </WebsiteUrl>

<InstallDir>c:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics CRM</InstallDir>

<CrmServiceAccount type="DomainUser">

<ServiceAccountLogin>Contoso\CRMAppService</ServiceAccountLogin>

<ServiceAccountPassword>password</ServiceAccountPassword>

</CrmServiceAccount>

<SandboxServiceAccount type="DomainUser">

<ServiceAccountLogin>Contoso\CRMSandboxService</ServiceAccountLogin>

<ServiceAccountPassword>password</ServiceAccountPassword>

</SandboxServiceAccount>

<DeploymentServiceAccount type="DomainUser">

<ServiceAccountLogin>Contoso\CRMDeploymentService</ServiceAccountLogin>

<ServiceAccountPassword>password</ServiceAccountPassword>

</DeploymentServiceAccount>

<AsyncServiceAccount type="DomainUser">

<ServiceAccountLogin>Contoso\CRMAsyncService</ServiceAccountLogin>

<ServiceAccountPassword>password</ServiceAccountPassword>

</AsnyncServiceAccount>

<SQM optin="true"/>

<muoptin optin="true"/>

<Email>

<IncomingExchangeServer name="ExchangeServerName"/>

</Email>

</Server>

</CRMSetup>

Caution

Maintaining the configuration file that has <ServiceAccountLogin> and <ServiceAccountPassword> values specified is a security risk because you are storing a password in plain text. Delete these elements as soon as the configuration file is used to install Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2011.
