In the PACKBENCH tab the settings necessary to install PackBench are configured. These settings are comprised of the folder which is used by PackBench to store projects and the SQL server connection which PackBench needs.
The PackBench Tab

The directory in which PackBench projects are stored is configured here. Either keep the default folder or change the folder by using the browse button [...] and select the target folder. By default, the directory configured is C:\RayPack\PackBench.
SQL Server Configuration
•SQL Server: The SQL server needs to be defined. Please specify the server together with the instance (if an instance is required). The server can be specified by its name or by its IP address. The SQL server must exist and must have a user which can create a database and has read and write access to the newly created database. Click on the browse button [...] to select the instance by browsing to the target instance. In order to provide an instance name, separate it from the server name by using a backslash (\) character.
•Database PackBench: The name of the database used by PackBench is defined here.
•Authentication: The authentication method which is used by PackBench is defined here. There are two options available:
oWindows Authentication: If this is chosen, the Windows authentication of the current user will be used for the login.
oSQL Authentication: If this is chosen, enter a user name into the User Name field and a password into the Password field.
There are also two buttons available which can be used to configure the connection and ensure that the connection is working.
•Copy SQL configuration from RayQC: This button can be used to copy the SQL configuration given in the RAYQC tab.
•Test connection: This button can be used to verify that the configured connection to the SQL server is working.
