This will be my first installation of SQL Server 2014, and actually my first install since I did SQL Server 2000 some years ago. I have been reading the postings here and elsewhere and downloading "How to" documents from several authors. In past jobs, the system admins usually did the initial installation, then I go in and change configs, etc. as needed, or the engine was already installed by the time I got on board, so I have not done an install in some time. This time I will be doing the entire install, including downloading the "ISO" installation file. One question that comes to mind right away is what ID do I install from - is an ID that has admin privileges good enough, or do I need the actual admin ID?My question is basically "any booby traps" to watch out for beyond the basic installation? I will be doing "Standard" on one box, and "Enterprise" in a week or so on another box. I have a good idea of what to install, but any thoughts on what to watch out for will be appreciated. From the articles and documents I read it looks pretty straight forward, but it has been some years since my last installation.Thanks to everyone in advance!
