Issue/Introduction

This article provides an alternative method that you can install Service Desk 17.3 with a SQL named instance, if the original installation hits issues with SQL named instance and non-standard port.

Environment

CA Service Desk Manager 17.3

SQL MDB

Resolution

Please perform below steps:

  1. Install Service Desk using default SQL instance and standard port and verify it works fine after installation
  2. Shutdown SDM and create a named instance and move the mdb to the named instance
  3. Change NX.env file @NX_DB_NODE variable:
    @NX_DB_NODE=SQL-server-name\\instance-name,non-standard-port-number
  4. Save and then run pdm_configure
  5. Start SDM if it does not start yet
