Windows Authentication, Domain/user for Backend databases on MS SQL

Products

• CA Process Automation Base

Issue/Introduction

Does IT Process Automation support using Windows Authentication, 'DOMAIN/user',  into the MS SQL based backend database?

Environment

Release : 4.3 SP5 / 4.4

Component : Process Automation

Resolution

At this time Windows Authentication is not supported by IT Process Automation for the backend databases.   The documentation located HERE (4.3) and HERE (4.4) describes setting up MS SQL for use by Process Automation and states:

SQL Server must be installed or configured with mixed-mode authentication. You specify an account with SQL Server authentication during the Orchestrator installation.
