    Note: For successful installation, the Windows user must be able to log in to the SQL server with Windows Authentication and have sufficient privileges to create a database. On successful setup, two databases named AcuoAuditRecord and AcuoAuditSetting are created on the SQL server with some predefined tables. You can modify these names, if required. Only a single settings database exists per application installation and the value should be in sync with the value in registry after service installation.
    Note: In case the service and the database components are installed in different systems, ensure that the service can communicate with the remote database via Windows Authentication.
    Note: Since the installer does not have any update features, it is recommended to delete the database installer from the control panel after database is installed. This will not delete the database installed in the previous step.
