Prerequisites
A SQL Server instance for the data warehouse
The server needs to be provisioned with adequate disk space for data and transaction logs. The data disk space requirements depend on the size of the snapshots and the number of snapshots that will be retained. The transaction log disk space requirements depend on the size of each snapshot. The size of the snapshots in turn depends on the number and size of the source Ad Manager databases and the cut-off date of the snapshot.
Since it's hard to know the disk space requirements in advance it would be best to use dynamic disks that can be expanded as required.
Ideally the SQL server machine will have a dedicated partition for data and a dedicated partition for transaction logs.
A machine to run the data pump on
The data pump requires network access to both the source Ad Manager database server(s) and the data warehouse server.
This could be the data warehouse server itself.
