1. Overview
We are going to setup a SharePoint Server 2010 development environment containing two servers:
SharePoint Server
Database Server
W2K8R2-03
192.168.1.3
Active Directory
W2K8R2-02
192.168.1.2
We dont deploy a single server with the built-in database. Instead we are using SQL Server 2008 R2
so this deployment can be scaled out to create two- and three-tier farm topologies if necessary1.
This guide shows you how to create a closed environment with an Active Directory on a separate
box. If you already have an Active Directory you can use the existing one for your installation.

If you are using a laptop you can use the first hard disk for your operating system and the second one
as data storage. If you are not using a laptop you can of course use a better processor and more RAM
since weight doesnt matter.
Detailed software requirements as well as updates are discussed in the according chapter later.
2.1. Installation
The installation is straight forward and doesnt require any detailed explanation. Just be sure you
install the 64-bit edition.
1. Start the install wizard for Windows Server 2008 R2.
At this point you have a basic but not configured Windows Server 2008 R2 image.
2.2. Updates
Windows Server 2008
You need to apply the following updates:
1. Service Pack 24
If you are running Windows Server 2008 without SP2, the Microsoft SharePoint Products Preparation
Tool installs Windows Server 2008 SP2 automatically.
Windows Server 2008 R2
You need to apply updates later in the process but for now there is nothing to do.
Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 and Windows Vista Service Pack 2 - Five Language Standalone for x64based systems,
http://sharepoint-tutorial.net/post/2011/02/12/Install-SharePoint-Server-2010.aspx#resources
2.3. Configuration
In order to avoid problems during the installation process later it is highly recommended to do the
following steps.
2.3.1 Computer settings
1. Join a domain and rename your computer if necessary. Restart your computer.
2.3.2
Network settings
1. Enable File and printer sharing to access your image using remote desktop.
10
3. Click next again to skip the operating system compatibility warning screen.
4. Select Create new domain in a new forest and click next.
Important
1. If you can access the internet from inside your image dont use the domain name of a
11
12
website.
2. Dont use a single-label domain name like mydomain, see
Information about configuring Windows for domains with single-label DNS names,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/300684
6. Accept the given NetBIOS name and click next.
7. Click next using the current forest functional level. Since this is an isolated virtual
environment we dont need to care.
10. If you have a network adapter with a dynamically assigned IP address you will get this
warning. Click yes as long as you have one network adapter with a static IP address.
12. Click next using default settings for the database, log files and sysvol.
14. At the summary screen click next in order to start the installation process.
15. Reboot.
16. Use the server manager to check if things have been successfully installed.
17. You dont need to do any configuration regarding the Active Directory. Necessary account
operations are described later.
13
14
5. Proceed to the role services selection and add the features you can see in the picture. If you
are prompted to add required role services and features click yes.
6. Proceed to the role services selection and add the following features.
15
16
7. Click install.
17
18
4.1. Accounts
You need to create the following accounts in Active Directory:
Account type
sqlSvcAcc
Setup Administrator
setupAdmin
Farm Account
spFarmAcc
This isnt necessary with SharePoint 2010 since we now have managed accounts capable of password
expiration and automatic change.
If you setup a development environment it is still recommended to use User cannot change
password and Password never expires in order to keep things simple.
19
20
2. This configuration step is done after SQL Server is installed and is documented here for the
purpose of completeness.
The SharePoint 2010 setup administrator needs to have the securityadmin and dbcreator
role. The sysadmin role is assigned if you decide during SQL Server 2008 R2 installation that
your SharePoint 2010 setup administrator should also be the SQL Server Administrator.

Although it is not mentioned there are newer cumulative update packages available for SQL Server.

Remarks
SharePoint 2010 setup doesnt check your SQL Server edition. It is checked by the SharePoint
Product and Technologies Configuration Wizard after setup.
If you install SQL Server 2008 RTM on Windows Server 2008 R2 you need to apply SP1 for
SQL Server 2008 after installation. So you can continue installing SQL Server 2008 if you see
the following picture:

5.2. Installation
The installation of SQL Server 2008 compared to SQL Server 2008 R2 is almost the same and
described below. If you get a compatibility warning while trying to install SQL Server 2008 on
Windows Server 2008 R2 you can proceed with install. Before running SQL Server you need to apply
Service Pack 1.
1. Install .NET Framework if required.
2. Start a new installation, accept the license agreement and install setup support files.
4. Select Database Engine Services and Management Tools - Basic and click next. Depending
on the things you do with SharePoint you might need additional features enabled.
25
26
8. Add the setup administrator a SQL Server administrator if you have an isolated Hyper-V
environment. Also enable FILESTREAM for Transact-SQL access and FILESTREAM for file I/O
under FILESTREAM tab.
9. Click next and finish the installation of SQL Server 2008 R2.
5.3. Configuration
There are two configuration steps you need to do: assign permission to the SharePoint 2010 setup
administrator and configure networking.
5.3.1 Assign permission
The SharePoint 2010 setup administrator needs to have at the following roles:
dbcreator
securityadmin
The following role is assigned if you decide during SQL Server 2008 R2 installation that your
SharePoint 2010 setup administrator should be a SQL Server administrator:
sysadmin
Important: If you are not logged on with the setup administrator please logon using setupAdmin.
Otherwise you might not be able to change settings if you dont have the sysadmin role assigned.

SQL Server 2005: Local and remote connections have to be enabled and have to use the
TCP/IP protocol.
SQL Server 2008: Under network configuration the TCP/IP protocol is enabled.
