Yes, there was a "Using Moodle databases" forum. See:

Hi

You wrote:
>>> Exported Mysql db (tables) to Access and then imported them into the Moodle (mssql) db.

That not how it works. Moodle has its own DB abstraction layer which is decided during installation. See $CFG->dbtype in $moodle/config.php. You can't change it on-the-fly!

> MySql was too cumbersome as a separate database system.

Could you elaborate on that?

> We want to use MSSQL because we already use it

Doesn't seem to be a strong argument (for me).

> and would like to incorporate the moodle backup into our existing plans.

A Moodle https://docs.moodle.org/en/Site_backup contains more than the database. So you need new plans anyway.

> Hopefully I don't have to import all the users and courses to redo everything. But if I have to that is what I may do.

You are ready to pay a high price for a non-convincing reason. May be yours is a "Microsoft house" and people feel insecure if something is non-MS. Why you call this an _upgrade_ is a puzzle to me!

Well, "tuning" was not the proper term. What I meant was, once you finish the installation if the the site doesn't run properly and you suspect the cause to be something with slasharguments you should come back.

I've had my encounters with the dreaded slasharguments. But wasn't aware of https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-50416. Perhaps becuase my most current production Moodle is 2.7 (LTS).

Did you mention your Moodle version? What was the tutorial you followed installing Moodle?
