# Integrate Configuration Manager

On the Site Server Information screen, provide the information for the ConfigMgr Site Server that will integrate with the Adaptiva Server. This integration requires access to the SMS Provider, ConfigMgr database, Site Server inboxes, and the Content Library file system hosted by the Site Server.

1. Click to select **Integration with an existing Microsoft ConfigMgr Site** and click **Next**.
2. Enter the Site Server details using the information gathered during Deployment Planning:

   ![Site Server Info](https://1238239958-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FzBcNZqjCKqgdpA83eD4o%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-31eec5e0e86e97313717f624ac79faef5f1d707c%2Fimage10.png?alt=media)
3. Enter the **Machine Name** (FQDN) and 3-character **Site Code** of the ConfigMgr site server.
4. Enter the ConfigMgr Site Login details gathered during Deployment Planning.

   We recommend using the default **Use Adaptiva Server's Local System Account** login. This is the simplest method of authentication of an Adaptiva Server connection with ConfigMgr.

   > **Note**: If the Adaptiva Server is not co-located with the ConfigMgr Site Server you must grant the Adaptiva Server's computer object the necessary permissions in Configuration Manager.

   If you choose not to use the Local System Account, enter the **Domain** (NETBIOS Domain name), **User Name** and **Password** for the domain account that has been granted the necessary permissions in Configuration Manager
5. Click **Next**.

## ConfigMgr Site Database Information

On the Site Database information screen, provide the database information for the ConfigMgr Site Server that will integrate with the Adaptiva Server.

1. The Site Database fields will auto-populate from the settings obtained by the logged in user's permissions to the ConfigMgr Site Server. You can update the SQL Login information that you gathered during Deployment Planning.

   ![Site Database Info](https://1238239958-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FzBcNZqjCKqgdpA83eD4o%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-412147c4349e41e0d40dd45fe6b675669a5d7495%2Fimage11.png?alt=media)
2. Review the Site Database details and configure any additional settings:

   **Machine Name:** the FQDN of the ConfigMgr SQL Server.

   **Database Name:** the ConfigMgr database name.

   If the SQL Server Instance is using encryption, click to select **SQL Instance Is Encrypted**.

   **SQL Instance Name**: the SQL instance name.

   **SQL Port**: the SQL port.
3. Review the SQL Login details and configure any additional settings:

   **Reuse Login Settings That Were Specified For Site Server Login** is selected by default.

   If you choose not to use the Local System Account, uncheck this box and uncheck **Use Adaptiva Server's Local System Account**.

   Enter the **Domain** (NETBIOS Domain name), **User Name** and **Password** for the domain account that has been granted the sysadmin permissions in SQL Server hosting the ConfigMgr database.

   If the account specified is a SQL account, uncheck **Use Windows Authentication**.
4. Click **Next**.

   If the account specified is different from the login account used for the service SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER | InstanceName) a warning will be displayed showing the account used by the SQL Service.

   ![Account Warning](https://1238239958-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FzBcNZqjCKqgdpA83eD4o%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-299f6d7fd85165bc4a44624f6afd175829205248%2Fimage12.png?alt=media)
5. Review the warning and if the settings are correct, click **Yes**, otherwise, click No and update the settings.
6. At the SQL Authentication Protocols dialog, select the authentication method that will be used to connect to the ConfigMgr Site database.

   ![SQL Authentication Protocols](https://1238239958-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FzBcNZqjCKqgdpA83eD4o%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-f0a107c5173fba27fb23aaff6d0148dd23ca8c2c%2Fimage13.png?alt=media)

   **NTLM v2** is selected by default when the ConfigMgr and Adaptiva databases are hosted on the same SQL server.

   Select **Kerberos (Requires SQL SPN)** when the ConfigMgr and Adaptiva databases are hosted on different SQL servers or additional security is required. To support Kerberos authentication, Service Principal Names (SPNs) must be created and delegated properly in Active Directory. See Appendix B in this document.
7. Click **OK**.

## Specify Login Information for Accessing Site Server Files

The **Login Information For Access To the Site Server's File System** screen allows you to specify an account that has the necessary permissions to access the Site Server's file system. Specifically, this account must be able to access the inboxes and the Content Library. Review the table of permissions required in the Deployment Planning Guide for ConfigMgr for potential actions required for this account.

1. At the **Login Information** screen, enter information to access the ConfigMgr file system.

   ![Login Info](https://1238239958-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FzBcNZqjCKqgdpA83eD4o%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-7c5251f0f561c0d55233ce95ecdebb2e74ae156d%2Fimage14.png?alt=media)

   **Reuse Login Settings That Were Specified For Site Server Login** is the default. Uncheck this box to specify an account.

   If you choose not to use the Local System Account, enter the **Domain** (NETBIOS Domain name), **User Name** and **Password** for the domain account that has been granted the necessary permissions in Configuration Manager.
2. Click **Next**.
3. Continue with [Configure the SQL Database](https://docs.adaptiva.com/platform-install/server-install/install-platform/install-platform-advanced-install/..#configure-the-sql-database).
