I recommend you learn how to use this first on another non-production setup. You're going to have to invest a bit of time trying it out and and testing a few installs in a non-prod farm first. After that investment of time you should be able to spin up future SharePoint farms in a fraction of the time. Sezai.

You can specify nice database names for all of them, as well as any other configuration aspect. If you have deployed some databases already, this article gives a nice way to change things: http://www.bullspit.co.uk/2011/03/19/sharepoint-2010-change-the-name-of-the-administration-content-database. This is also using PowerShell, which I highly recommend for farm deployment (I don't think I've done config/deployment through the UI for a long time now). There are also some good starting points on TechNet with ready built examples: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg983005.aspx Kind Regards, Roger Carran Sharing Minds Knowledge | Communication | Collaboration | Productivity Mobile: 0411 598 110 Web: www.SharingMinds.com.au<http://www.sharingminds.com.au/> Thinking about upgrading your Intranet?

(Yay!) When running install and config I wanted to use a prefix for my databases, something like SP2010_Prod_<database>, which worked great for the _Config database, but after running the wixard the rest of them have the horrible GUID at the end. Not wanting to start all over, is there a clean workable way to rename all the databases, I.E. not just the WSS_Content databases?
