    • The site name can contain a maximum of 127 characters.
    • Do not name your site "Commerce." This is a reserved OLAP database name. Naming your site "Commerce" could cause the overwriting of your OLAP database the next time you unpack a site.
    • Do not use any of the following words as the site name:

      "App Default Config," "BDSecurity," "Biz Data Service," "Campaigns," "Direct Mail," "Global Data Warehouse," "Predictor," "Product Catalog," "Site CS Authentication," "Site Data Warehouse," "Transaction Config," or "Transactions."

    IIS Web site Select the name of the IIS Web site where the application(s) will be installed.

    • If you unpack a site onto the IIS Administrative Web site, the site and Business Desk will not function due to IIS administration security limitations.
    SQL Server Computer Type the name of the SQL Server computer that will contain the databases for the site.
    Use Windows Integrated security Select this option if you want to use integrated Windows authentication. Windows authentication is the recommended configuration.

    Ee825138.note(en-US,CS.20).gifNote

    • When you use Windows integrated security, user names and passwords are not stored in the SQL Server connection string, and are not affected by SQL password resets. For information about Commerce Server security, see Securing Your Site.
    Use a specific user name and password Select this option if you want to use SQL Server authentication when connecting to the databases.

    Ee825138.note(en-US,CS.20).gifNote

    • You should always use a strong password when creating passwords. For more information about strong passwords, see Using Strong Passwords.
