Is it possible to install Changepoint using an SQL account different than 'sa' ?

The installer enforces the use of the SA account for the database upgrade.

It is however possible to do a manual database upgrade. Depending on your version, you need to run one or two SQLImports. For this import, a username different than SA can be used.

The user needs however to have the server role 'sysadmin'. You might be able launch the CSP import without sysadmin role, but it will fail at a later stage.
