Use

If a print station created in the Customizing activity Specify Print Station for Print Requests is supplied with data from multiple WWI servers, you must create a common database for these WWI servers. To do this, install Microsoft SQL Server as a central, non-file-based database system.

This database is used to store print requests that are generated and printed via the WWI server, as well as documents (such as label templates).

If you use one WWI server for each print station, you do not need to specify a database.

Requirements

Standard settings

Activities

Install Microsoft SQL Server and follow the manufacturer's installation instructions. Then perform the following steps:

  1. Create a separate database for WWI by executing the SQL command CREATE DATABASE.
  2. Assign, to the Windows user account under which the WWI service is run, those authorizations that are required for defining data structures and for querying and editing the data saved in them.
  3. Determine the connection string. This contains all parameters needed to establish a connection between the WWI server and the database system.
  4. In the WWI.INI file, enter the connection string under [DMS] as dbConnection. For more information about editing the WWI.INI file during the course of Global Label Management, see the Customizing activity Configure WWI Document Management System.
