Database for Scan Service

Scan Service is not compatible with SQLite, which is the default database for the management server.

If your management server uses SQLite, you can only configure Scan Service with a PostgreSQL database. PostgreSQL 9.6 and later are supported.

If your management server uses Microsoft SQL Server, you can configure Scan Service with the same database, without additional settings. You can also configure Scan Service with a PostgreSQL database.

To configure Scan Service with a PostgreSQL database

1. In the installation wizard, under Database for the scan service, click Change.

2. Select PostgreSQL Server database.

3. Specify the PostgreSQL instance host name, or IP address and port.

4. Specify the credentials of a user who has the CREATEDB privilege or who is a superuser.

   The SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication method in PostgreSQL 10 and later is not supported.

5. Click Done.
