I need to install MS Dynamics CRM 2013 on two tiers. I have two VMs and I want to install the database of the CRM on one instance and the app of the CRM on the other instance.
Kindly guide me how can this be done.
Regards,
F. Ali
I'd start out by looking at the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Implementation Guide and then asking a more pointed question if you run into a problem.
Here is the online version of the installation instructions: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh699742(v=crm.6).aspx
Install SQL Server on one VM and the CRM on the other, the installation will ask for the name of the SQL Server to use as part of the process.

Please let me know that how to get started and deploy application with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Higher Education Accelerator.
I searched a lot but confuse how to start with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Higher Education Accelerator.
You need Dynamics CRM instance and then you can install it as solution.
https://appsource.microsoft.com/en/product/dynamics-365/mshied.highereducationcommondatamodel?tab=overview&modalAppId=mshied.highereducationcommondatamodel&signInModalType=2&testDrive=true&ctaType=5
Or you can use test drive that will give you access to CRM with the solution installed.
Here is the documentation

I've recently acquired a new client, they are using Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 and I need to replicate their working environment on my server.
I seem unable to find a download link for the server setup, the official Microsoft download center gives 404, and all other sources I've found on the web aren't working (the new Partner Center doesn't provide a download for the 2011 version).
Does anyone know where I can find a working installer?
Thanks
Is Entity Change Tracking supported in version 8.2 on-premise?
I couldn't find an actual article from Microsoft that confirms this.
Use change tracking to synchronize data with external systems
For Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online organizations, this feature is available only if your organization has updated to Dynamics CRM Online 2015 Update 1. This feature is not available for Dynamics CRM (on-premises).
We are developing an Addon for the Dynamics CRM and we need pre-populated data in some of our master entities.
Are there any ways to import data at the same time when we deploy our Add-on in client CRM environment?
Yes, via a tool called the Dynamics 365 Package Deployer.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM Package Deployer lets administrators deploy
packages on Microsoft Dynamics 365 (online) and Dynamics 365
(on-premises) instances. A “package” can consist of any or all of the
following:
One or more Dynamics 365 solution files.
Flat files or exported configuration data file from the Configuration
Migration tool. For more information about the tool, see TechNet:
Manage your configuration data.
Custom code that can run before, while, or after the package is deployed to the Dynamics 365 instance.
HTML content specific to the package that can display at the beginning and end of the deployment process. This can be useful to
provide a description of the solutions and files that are deployed in
the package.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 provides you with a Visual Studio template for
creating these packages that can be used with the Package Deployer
tool to deploy them to a Dynamics 365instance.
Here's a video about creating a package.
And another about deploying a package.
I am doing some research on building integrations for Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online. The integration I am building will be for Dynamics CRM Online 2013, but I am curious if the 2013 version shares an API with the 2011 version.
Does anyone know if an integration built for Dynamics CRM Online 2013 will be backwards compatible with Dynamics CRM Online 2011?
Any insight here would be appreciated.
Also, if anyone has good resources for working with these API's using Ruby that would be awesome...
Thanks!
I wrote some integration for CRM 2011 Online (C# and PHP/SOAP) and I can happily say both still work.
Any integration written with CRM4 in mind would need some modifications I believe (this may just be changing the endpoints) but 2011 and 2013 seem to work ok together.
If you are wanting to connect using a non .Net language be careful as it can be significantly more painful then creating a wrapper for the web service then talking to that from Ruby.
To connect with a non .Net language you need to use SOAP. I have put some posts here (PHP code but it should be easy enough to convert)
http://crmtroubleshoot.blogspot.com.au/2013/07/dynamics-crm-2011-php-and-soap-using.html
I currently don't have it working with Active Directory authentication though!
Everything that I've read about the API changes from 2011 to 2013 has boiled down to the removal of the CRM 4 aspx endpoint. Besides that, most of the changes to CRM are front end.
I read somewhere that a solution made in 2013 can't be exported in 2011. So I don't think will be retro-compatible.
Chapter-
Introduction to solutions
here it is from the SDK:
Version compatibility
Solutions exported from an older version can be imported into newer versions. Solutions exported from newer versions cannot be imported into older versions. This includes major and minor version differences.
Solutions exported from a Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 environment or a Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online organization prior to the Fall '13 Service Update can be imported into organizations using the initial release of Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online Fall '13 Service Update. However as updates are applied and include new features or metadata definitions, these new features or definitions cannot be included in a solution that is installed on an organization that is not current with the definition that the solution was exported from.
