Database Settings – Connect to existing database – On this screen you will need to specify database settings to connect to your Passwordstate database. Please consider the following:

  • You can either specify database connection settings to point directly to your database server, or to an SQL Listener if using Basic or Always On Availability Groups
  • If you are wanting to connect using a Managed Service Account, you must first configure the Passwordstate IIS Application Pools to run under the identity of this MSA account
  • You will need to copy across the Secret1 & Secret2 values from your primary site’s web.config file
