Step 2. Based on supported SQL Express Databases, install respective SQL Express Database. In the Lab Environment, SQL 2008 Express Server SP3 is installed.

Step 3. Refer to CUAC Advanced Administration and Installation Guide for installation of SQL Server 2008.

Note: During the selection of the default instance while installation, the selection of the named instance, names the SQL instance as <Computer name\SQLEXPRESS>. This in turn is an issue while you install Attendant Console Server as it by default assumes SQL Db instance to be <Computername> only this cannot be changed either.

Step 4. After you install the required SQL Express Server, ensure that you can login to it using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. In order to enable SA User  navigate to  Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio > Object Explorer > Expand Security > Expand Logins. Now right click sa then select properties and enter Password. Click on Status page Select Enabled under Login, as shown in the image:

Step 5. Restore ATTCFG and ATTLOG from the old CUAC system.

Note: This step is based on SQL database migration procedures in place; however, involvement of a SQL Admin is advised.

Step 6. After the SQL installation is complete with ATTCFG and ATTLOG restored, proceed with installation of CUAC 11.0.2

Follow Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced Administration and Installation Guide for CUAC installation.

https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucmac/cuaca/11_0_2/install_admin_guide/CUACA110201WAG.pdf

During installation (Database Wizard), an option on whether you want to overwrite the existing database is asked. This option is because installation setup recognizes the existence of SQL 2008 Express with ATTCFG and ATTLOG. Hence, it needs input from Admin on whether this Db be overwritten.

Click on NO as shown in the image and let the installation proceed further.
