Before auditing with IDERA SQL Secure, you need to register those SQL Server instances you want to monitor. You can register servers using the Register a SQL Server wizard or by importing a file containing details of your SQL Server instances in .CSV format. The wizard is recommended if you have only a few instances while the import option is best for larger environments. For more information about importing your SQL Server instances, see Import SQL Server instances.

Take into account that you have to complete the Register a SQL Server wizard for every SQL Server instance you want to monitor before it can be audited by SQL Secure. |
In On the Register a SQL Server wizard wizards, you will be able to specify the SQL Server location, credentials to use for auditing, object filter criteria, the schedule of your audits, and email notifications configuration. Once you have set up your SQL Server instance for auditing, SQL Secure will apply your settings and display the registered instance in the Security Summary and Explore Permissions tree panes. These configuration settings are stored in the Repository.
