Configure Application Event Log (optional)

BizTalk Server setup keeps a record of events in the Application Event Log. Depending on the BizTalk Server features installed, the amount of space required in the log may exceed its limit. If the application event log runs out of space during the setup, the installation fails. Changing the Application Event Log settings prevents this failure.

    • Or, open Server Manager, select Tools, and then select Event Viewer.

  2. Expand Windows Logs, right-click Application, and then select Properties.

  3. To determine the available space, compare the Log Size and the Maximum log size properties.

    • To add space, enter a higher number in Maximum log size.
    • To enable overwriting of old events when the log becomes full, select Overwrite events as needed.
    • To clear the log events, select Clear log.

  4. Select OK.

Using adsutil.vbs

  1. Open a command prompt as administrator.

Install & configure SMTP Server (optional)

If you use BAM Alerts, BizTalk Server requires SMTP Server. If you don't use BAM Alerts, you can skip this section.

SQL Server Database Mail uses an SMTP Server to send BAM Alerts. SMTP Server can be installed locally on the BizTalk Server or on another server with IIS installed. SMTP Server is not available on client operating systems, such as Windows 8.1 or Windows 10.

SMTP Server is included with server operating systems as a Feature.

  1. In the Start menu, open Turn Windows Features on or off. Or, open Server Manager, select Manage, and then select Add roles and features.
  2. Select SMTP Server, and continue with the installation.
  3. Restart the computer if prompted.

Install Excel 2019 or 2016 (optional)

If you plan to use the BAM Add-In for Excel on this computer, Excel is required. Otherwise, you can skip this section.

The BAM Office Excel Workbook defines the business processes you want to monitor. You also use the BAM Excel Workbook to define the way business users see the data collected by BAM.

Important

  • BizTalk Server supports only 32-bit versions of Microsoft Office.
  • To successfully load BAM.xla into Excel, install Visual Basic for Applications (under Office Shared Features). Otherwise, you may get error: This workbook has lost its VBA project, ActiveX controls and any other programmability-related features.

Install Visual Studio 2019 (optional)

BizTalk Server requires Visual Studio to create BizTalk projects using the development tools. If this is a staging or production server, or you're not doing any BizTalk development, then skip this section.

Visual Studio Enterprise (recommended) and Professional editions are supported. Visual Studio Community edition isn't supported.

  1. Run the Visual Studio setup as Administrator.
  2. Select a Default installation. BizTalk Server does not require any of the optional features.
  3. Continue with the installation, and restart your computer if prompted.

SEE ALSO : Installing Visual Studio 2019

Important

  • The BizTalk Server development tools are based on Visual Studio. At a minimum, install the .NET desktop development workload before you install the BizTalk Server Developer Tools/SDK and BizTalk Server extension.
  • The BizTalk Server runtime requires .NET Framework 4.7.2 or higher.

Install SQL Server

BizTalk Server requires SQL Server. SQL Server can be installed on the same computer as BizTalk, or on a different computer. Most production environments install BizTalk and SQL on separate servers.

Important

  • SQL Server Express Edition is not recommended or supported. The Express edition does not include certain features needed by BizTalk Server.
  • BizTalk Server supports SQL Standard Edition. However, to use Business Activity Monitoring real-time aggregation (BAM RTA), install SQL Server Enterprise Edition. BAM real-time aggregation (RTA) is not supported in the Standard Edition of SQL Server.
  • BizTalk Server supports all case-sensitive and case-insensitive SQL Server collations except for binary collations. Binary collations are not supported.

For specific install steps, see Install SQL Server.

  1. Start the SQL Server installation.

  2. During the Feature setup, select the following:

    • Database Engine Services

    • Analysis Services

    • Shared Features

      • Client Tools Connectivity
      • Integration Services

      Note

      To set up Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) when SQL is remote to BizTalk, you must also install SSIS on BizTalk Server.

  3. Configure Analysis Services in Multidimensional Mode. Default is Tabular Mode, make sure to change it to Multidimensional Mode in SQL Server installation wizard before continuing with installation.

    Change Analysis Services from tabular mode to multidimensional mode when installing SQL server

  4. Continue with the installation, and restart the computer if prompted.

Disable Shared Memory

  1. Open SQL Server Configuration Manager.
  2. In SQL Server Configuration Manager, expand SQL Server Network Configuration, and then select Protocols for MSSQLSERVER.
  3. Right-click Shared Memory, and then select Disable.
  4. Select SQL Server Services, right-click SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER), and then select Stop. After the service has stopped, right-click SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER), and then select Start.
  5. Close SQL Server Configuration Manager.

Typically, the Shared Memory protocol only impacts clients (BizTalk Server) that are installed on the same computer as SQL Server. Under certain stress conditions (such as clients accessing SQL Server from the same computer), the SQL Server Shared Memory protocol may lower BizTalk Server performance. Disabling the Shared Memory network protocol resolves this.

Configure SQL Database Mail (optional)

If you use BAM Alerts, BizTalk Server requires SQL Server Database Mail. If you don't use BAM Alerts, then skip this section.

SEE ALSO : More on Database Mail.

Important

  • You need to know the server name and TCP port number for the SMTP Server. If you installed IIS and SMTP Server on this same computer, then you use the local SMTP Server. If the SMTP server requires authentication, then have the user name and password ready.
  • The BAM portal and BAM Alerts are separate features. If you are using BAM Alerts, then SQL Server Database Mail is required. If you are not using BAM Alerts, then SQL Server Database Mail is not required.

For specific configuration steps, see: Configure SQL Server Database Mail.

To send a test email:

  1. Right-click Database Mail, and select Send Test E-Mail.
  2. Enter a To: email address, and select Send Test E-Mail.

If the To: recipient receives the email, then Database Mail is configured.

Create the SSIS Catalog (optional)

If you use BAM, BizTalk Server requires SSIS Catalog to be created. If you don't use BAM, then skip this section.

SEE ALSO : More on SSIS Catalog.

For specific steps to create the SSIS Catalog, see: Create the SSIS Catalog.

Install WinSCP (optional)

Required by the SFTP adapter. If you don't use the SFTP adapter, then skip this section.

Download and install WinSCP.
