8) Right Click Database and modify the path of data file and log files. 9) Add server to sqlerlgck.cfg on RGPIDBA007 for backup checks (The file is located in the path: D:\MSSQL\local) to get mails of newly installed SQL server error logs. 10) Add the Server name in the batch file which is located in the D drive of RGPIDBA007 for daily backup checks 11) Change the port number of named instance (normally 1435)
Start = > Programs=> Microsoft SQL Server=> Configuration tools=>SQL Server configuration Manager.=> SQL Server Network Configuration=>Select the instance and Double click the TCP/IP and select the IP Addresses tab and add the port no as 1435.

12) Configuring Inquirer Copy folder MSSQL in the D drive of any other server and edit the file Sqltab in the etc folder
Eg for default instance Eg for named instance : : default|1433|Servername.fdnet.com|P||| Servername\Instance name|1435|Servername.fdnet.com|P|||

After that configure Inquirer in the server. change the path to D:\mssql\local>ibmpdba_setup.exe s and after running this command we will get the output as below Input the items which are mentioned in Bold letters. Welcome to the IBM DB Inquirer Setup Program
