Click Application Management. You will see the screen, as shown below. Configure Add a content database: Web Application Choose a Web Application, where you would like to attach the content database. Database name- Provide the database name.
Database authentication- Here, you can select the authentication as you want in Windows authentication or SQL authentication. This connection will be used to connect to the database.
Failover Server Here, you can use the mirror Server to be used as a back-up Server for the main Server. Database Capacity Settings Here, you can configure the capacity of the Server, which will set the limit to the number of the sites that should be created or limited to send a warning when a certain amount of sites have been created.
Make sure to install any components that your sites depend on to work correctly, such as the following:. Ensure that you transfer all unique settings from the Web. Administrator-approved form templates. InfoPath is available in SharePoint Server only. The directories on the file system are duplicated in both the 14 and 15 paths, for example:. Be sure to install customizations to the correct location in your new farm.
For more information, see Install-SPSolution. For more information about how to deploy customizations to your environment, see Install and manage solutions for SharePoint Server. To make sure that you have identified all custom components for your environment, use the Stsadm -o enumallwebs operation in the SharePoint Products environment and use the includefeatures and includewebparts parameters.
This operation can report the templates, features, Web Parts, and other custom elements that are used for each site. For more information about how to use the enumallwebs operation, see Enumallwebs: Stsadm operation Office SharePoint Server and Clean up an environment before an upgrade to SharePoint You can also use the Get-SPWeb Microsoft PowerShell cmdlet in your SharePoint Products environment to see template that are associated with each site and then verify that the template is installed in your SharePoint environment.
For more information about this operation, see Get-SPWeb. Before you attach the content databases to the web applications, use the Test-SPContentDatabase Microsoft PowerShell cmdlet to verify that you have all the custom components that you must have for that database.
If you do not have permissions, contact your Setup administrator or SQL Server administrator to request permissions.
When you attach a content database, you upgrade the database and add the site collections in that database to the web application that you specify. However, for SharePoint , the process does not upgrade the site collections. When you attach a content database, for a web application that spans multiple content databases, make sure that you attach the content database that contains the root site collection first.
When you attach a content database, include the root site for the web application in the first content database that you attach. In other words, before you continue, examine the root of the web application in the SharePoint Products server farm to determine the first site collection. After you attach the database that contains the root site, attach the other content databases for the web application in any order. You do not have to create any site collections to store the content before you attach the database.
This process attaches the content databases and the site collections inside that database. Make sure that you do not add new site collections until you have restored all the content databases. Each site collection in a content database has a GUID that is registered in the configuration database and associated with the site collection. Therefore, you cannot add the same site collection two times to the farm, even in separate web applications.
Although you can successfully attach the database in this situation, you will be unable to browse to the site collection. The backup and restore process creates a new GUID for the site collection.
You want to add a new content database for new site collections to keep content databases at a manageable size. You are restoring a content database from another farm and you want the sites that it contains to be accessed from a web application. You have archived site collections out of a content database and then detach the content database from the web application. For more information, see Move site collections between databases in SharePoint Server. The steps to add a database and to attach a database are very similar.
For more information about how to add a database, see Add content databases in SharePoint Server. Verify that the user account that is being used to perform this operation is a member of the Farm Administrators SharePoint group. On the Application Management page, in the Databases section, click Manage content databases. On the Manage Content Databases page, click Add a content database. Use the Web Application drop-down menu to select the web application to which you want to attach a content database.
Needless to say, CUs are integral for maintaining a healthy SharePoint farm. Make sure you test the CU by installing in test or dev SharePoint environments first. Also, create a farm back-up before installing CUs. Download the required cumulative updates. You can install CU simultaneously on each SharePoint server in a farm. Run the SharePoint configuration wizard on each server one-by-one.
You cannot run the configuration wizard in parallel. I would recommend running the configuration wizard on the server which is hosting the central administration site, first. Run the configuration wizard as an administrator. Click on Next, as I am running this configuration wizard on a test server, there will be 2 more steps in a multiple server farm. It will give you a choice to disconnect the server from the farm and if you want to remove the central administration host site from the machine.
