Dynamics CRM 2013 Installation D

1. Download the Dynamics CRM 2013 Server setup files from here  

2. Run Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server Setup by navigating to the directory. It is recommended to do it with 'Run as Administrator'   

3. Welcome to Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013 Setup page  

    On this page, we recommend that you click Get updates for Microsoft Dynamics CRM, to make sure that Setup has the most recent installation files. Click Next.   

4. If there is no update needed you can proceed with the setup by clicking Next.  

 5. Product Key Information

The next step is to enter the product key. You may insert a valid commercial product key or use one of the following 90-day trial keys.

 

Microsoft Dynamics CRM Workgroup Server 2013 (5 CAL limit):

NX77Y-BTBCV-JP3T3-8W7JH-94QJP

Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013 (no CAL limit):

CQWW3-TNXBF-HRQWC-CVTW9-M968H

 

 6. License Agreement page

 On the License Agreement page, review the information and, if you accept the license agreement, click I accept this license agreement, and then click I Accept.

 

 7. Install Required Components

 If Setup detects that components are missing, the Install Required Components page appears.

· If you have already installed the required components, this page will not appear.

· If you have not installed the required components listed, you can install them now. Click Install. When the components are installed, the status column will change from Not Installed to Installed, and you can click Next to continue.

Note: If you are prompted to restart the computer, do so, and then start Setup again.

 

   

 Once successfully installing all the required components, press Next to continue with the setup

 

 8. Select Installation Location

 On the Select Installation Location page, accept the default location or enter a different file installation location, and then click Next.

 

 9. Specify Server roles

 Here you can specify the server roles to install in the current server

To take advantage of additional performance and scaling benefits in enterprise deployments, consider distributing specific server functionality, components and services or server roles on different servers. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 supports distribution and scaling of server roles across multiple servers.

 

There are 2 new services as part of the Back End Server roles and the Deployment Administration Server roles. These are the Email integration Service and the VSS writer service.

Email Integration Service

Handles sending and receiving of email messages by connecting to an external email server

VSS Writer Service

This service provides an interface to backup and restore Dynamics CRM data by using the Windows Server Volume Shadow Copy service (VSS) infrastructure

 I will choose all the roles to be installed on the same server

 

 10. Specify Deployment Options

 On the Specify Deployment Options page, select the name of the computer that is running SQL Server to use the deployment box, type or select the instance of Microsoft SQL Server that will be used to store the Dynamics CRM database (MSCRM_CONFIG)

 For a new installation of Dynamics CRM, we select the option Create a new deployment

 

11. Select the Organizational Unit

On the Select the Organizational Unit page, click Browse to display your Active Directory structure. Select the location where you want the Microsoft Dynamics CRM organizational unit to be installed into, click OK, and then click Next. Microsoft Dynamics CRM security groups are created in this organizational unit.

 

   

   

12. Specify Service Accounts

On the Specify Service Accounts page, select the security accounts for the Microsoft Dynamics CRM services, and then click Next.

For each service, we strongly recommend that you select a low-privilege domain account that is dedicated to running these services and is not used for any other purpose.

Additionally, the user account that is used to run a Microsoft Dynamics CRM service cannot be a Microsoft Dynamics CRM user. This domain account must be a member of the Domain Users group.

Additionally, if the Asynchronous Service and Sandbox Processing Service roles are installed, such as in a Full Server or a Back End Server installation, the domain account must a member of the Performance Log Users security group.

If you select to run the ASP.NET service under a domain user account that is not a domain administrator or a local administrator, you must set a local security policy after you install Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013 for the ASP.NET service to work correctly. Also, depending on the password policies that you have implemented for your organization, the password for the user may expire

There are a couple of new services in CRM 2013

Monitoring Service

Monitors all Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 server roles that are installed on the local computer. This service is used to detect expired digital certificates that may affect Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 services that are running in the deployment.

VSS Writer service

The Microsoft Dynamics CRM VSS Writer service provides an interface to backup and restore Dynamics CRM data by using the Windows Server Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) infrastructure.

 

 

13. Select a Web Site

On the Select a Web Site page, click Create a new Web site or click Select a Web Site and select a website from the list. By default, Setup will use the default website.

Important: We strongly recommend that you verify the status of the existing website before you specify Setup to use an existing website. We strongly recommend that the website you select is configured for SSL. For more information see the IIS documentation. During the installation, Setup can bind the Microsoft Dynamics CRM application to the HTTPS website. If you select a network port other than a default port, ensure that the firewall does not block the port.

When you select the Create a new Web site option, Setup creates a new website for Microsoft Dynamics CRM. You can specify the following option:

Port Number: Type the TCP port number that Microsoft Dynamics CRM clients will use to connect to the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013. The default port number is 5555. Click Next

14. Specify E-mail Router Settings

On the Specify E-mail Router Settings page, in the E-mail Router server name box, type the name of the computer where the Email Router will be installed.

This computer will route Microsoft Dynamics CRM email messages. If you will not install the Email Router you can leave this box blank. However, if you install the Email Router later you must add the computer where the Email Router service is running when you use Local System, or if you use a domain user account, the account, to the PrivUserGroup security group. Click Next

Note: If you want to use Server Side Synchronization or do not want to specify the email router name you can leave it blank and click Next

15. Specify the Organization Settings

On the Specify the Organization Name page, specify the following information.

  • In the Display Name box, type the name of your organization.
  • In the Unique Database Name box, you can keep the name that is automatically generated or you can type a unique name that must be limited to 30 characters. Spaces and extended characters are not allowed.
  • Under ISO currency code, click Browse, select the ISO currency code that you will use as the base currency for the organization in the list, and then click OK.
    You can change the currency's symbol, name, or precision.
  • In the SQL collation list, keep the default selection or select a different database collation that the organization database will use to sort and compare data characters.

      Click Next.

Important
After Setup is complete, you cannot change the database collation, base ISO currency code, or the organization unique name. However, you can change the base currency name and base currency symbol.

 

16. Specify Reporting Services Server

On the Specify Reporting Services Server page, type the Report Server URL. Make sure that you use the Report Server URL, not the Report Manager URL.

To verify that you are using the correct URL, in a browser, type the Report Server URL as the address.

Click Next

   

17. Help us Improve the Customer Experience

      On the Help Us Improve the Customer Experience page, select whether you want to participate in the Customer Experience Improvement Program, and then click Next  

 18. Select Microsoft Update Option page

       On the Select Microsoft Update Option page, you must select either of the following options.

 Use Microsoft Update when I check for updates (recommended) - By selecting this option, Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server will use the Microsoft Update settings on the computer.

  I don't want to use Microsoft update- You should only select this option if the computer uses another method to install updates such as by using Microsoft Windows Server Update Services (WSUS).

 

 19. System Checks

       This page is a summary of all requirements and recommendations for a successful installation. Errors must be resolved before installation can continue. If no errors, or only warnings appear, you can continue with the installation. To do this, click Next

 

 20. Service Disruption Warning 

       This page lists all services that will be stopped or restarted during Setup.    

 21. Ready to Install Microsoft Dynamics CRM 

       Review the Ready to Install Microsoft Dynamics CRM page, and then click Back to correct any warnings. When you are ready to continue, click Install.  

Once the installation is successful you can launch the Reporting Extensions setup

Install Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Reporting Extensions

You must complete Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server Setup before you run CRM Reporting Extensions Setup.

You must run Microsoft Dynamics CRM Reporting Extensions Setup on a computer that has a supported version of Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services installed    

You can locate the setup file from ..\Server\amd64\SrsDataConnector folder, double-click SetupSrsDataConnector.exe.

   

     1. Welcome to Microsoft Dynamics CRM Reporting Extensions Setup

      Select whether you want to update Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server Setup. We recommend that, if updates are available, you let Setup download the latest version.

      To do this, click Get updates for Microsoft Dynamics CRM, wait until the update process is complete, and then click Next

   

 2. License Agreement

       Review the information and, if you accept the license agreement, click I accept this license agreement,

       and then click I Accept.

   

   3. Install Required Components

If Setup detects that components are missing, the Install Required Components page appears.

a. If you have already installed the required components, this page will not appear.

b. If you have not installed the required components listed, you can install them now. Click Install. When the components are installed, the status column will change from Missing to Installed, and you can click Next to continue.

  4. Specify Configuration Database Server

      If you are using the default instance of the SQL Server, enter the name of the computer that is running SQL Server and contains the Microsoft Dynamics CRM configuration database that is named MSCRM_CONFIG, and then click Next.

Note: If you are not using the default SQL Server instance, enter <machine-name>\<instance-name>

5. Specify SSRS Instance Name

      Select a Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services instance that will be used for Microsoft Dynamics CRM reporting, and then click Next.

   

     6. Select Microsoft Update Option

     Select whether you want to use Microsoft Update for checking for updates for your Microsoft products, and click Next.

     We recommend that you use the Microsoft Update to check for updates because this keeps your computer up-to-date and secure.

 

    7. Select Installation Location

      Click Browse, and select a path where you want to install CRM Reporting Extensions, and then click Next.

   

   8. System Checks

      This page is a summary of the requirements for a successful CRM Reporting Extensions installation. Errors must be corrected before installation can continue. All errors must be resolved. If no errors or only warnings appear, you can continue with the installation. To do this, click Next.

You may get the below error id the Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Service was installed via default settings- then the service account is set to Report Server

   

To resolve the issue, open the Reporting services configuration manager and update the Service Account to something else such as "NetworkService"

Once you click on Apply, you will be prompted for the File Location and the password of the Back Encryption Key.

Click Apply and Exit

The table below summarizes the account and provides recommendations for using the service accounts for Reporting Service.

For best results, specify an account that has network connection permissions, with access to network domain controllers and corporate SMTP servers or gateways. The following table summarizes the accounts and provides recommendations for using them.

    Is it possible to migrate from Microsoft Dynamics CRM Workgroup Server 2013 to Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013? We have the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Workgroup Server 2013 and need more users. Is it just a license upgrade or a software upgrade. Also, if its a software upgrade, is migration readily possible from Microsoft Dynamics CRM Workgroup Server 2013 to Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013 ?

    Hello, at the beginning of the article you state that server core will not work. However I have configured a lot of our various servers to use Server core. In our CRM environment "complex", I have broken out CRM into servers into 5 Servers in production with various CRM roles. My question to you; Is there any of the roles where it would be OK to convert them into Server Core, Async immediately comes to mind and so does the Database Server. But I would appreciate your input. Additionally it would be nice if MS put an article together describing Multi-Server virtualized environment configuration recommendations, such as memory and vCPU for each Virtual Guest.
