I'm about to install 9.1 on 2003 server should I use existing SQL instance or create new?

Hello,

If SQL Server 2000 is already installed on the server, you are prompted to do one of the
following:
â—† Install the required Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (MSDE 2000) components with Backup Exec and create a default Backup Exec instance.
â—† Select a SQL Server 2000 instance that already exists on which to run Backup Exec.

Note: If you choose to install Backup Exec into an existing SQL 2000 instance, make sure that SQL 2000 service pack 3a or later is installed before you continue with the installation.


When Backup Exec is installed into an existing instance, the automated master database restore feature is not available. To recover the Master database, you must
replace it with the Master database copy that Backup Exec automatically creates and updates when the Master database is backed up.

When Backup Exec is installed into an instance other than a default Backup Exec instance, the Cluster Configuration Wizard is not available.


We recommend to create a new Backup Exec instance.

Thank you,
