Overview
This chapter discusses the installation process used to implement vCenter Server Heartbeat on Windows
Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008. The installation process for both scenarios follows the same basic
procedure. Links to specific installation scenarios describing differences are identified by the blue hyperlinked
text.
Prior to installing vCenter Server Heartbeat, you must identify the deployment options you want. The
installation process requires you to select options throughout the procedure to achieve your configuration
goals.
Installation Process
After selecting implementation options, begin the installation process. During the installation process, vCenter
Server Heartbeat performs a variety of checks to ensure the server meets the minimum requirements for a
successful installation. Should the server fail one of the checks, a critical stop or warning message appears.
Refer to the Appendix – Setup Error Messages in this guide for a list of the checks and an explanation of the
message. You must resolve critical stops before you can proceed with setup.
Primary Server
vCenter Server Heartbeat is installed on both the Primary and Secondary server of a vCenter Server Heartbeat
Pair. Installation of vCenter Server Heartbeat begins on the Primary server.

NOTE When protecting SQL Server, the SQL Server instance service must run under an account with
administrator rights rather than the Network Service or Local System account. If required, change the Log On
AS property by navigating to Start > Administrative Tools > Services. Select the SQL Service instance and
click Properties. Select the Log On tab and select This account. Provide the new account credentials and click
OK. Once complete, restart the SQL Server instance service.
