> The SQL Server JDBC driver is only available as a self-extracting GUI 
> application, which is unsuitable for download and install via the Ambari 
> services. The styrategy to overcome this limitation is as follows:
> 1. Require the user to install the SQL Server JDBC Driver manually. This will 
> comply to the EULA, and will give us green light to distribute the bits to 
> all the machines in the cluster.
> 2. Pick up the bits and save them in the Server's resources directory.
> 3. The Agent will download the bits from the resources directory, and drop 
> them on the machine in a standard directory, where they will be visible to 
> all the components in the HDP stack.
> This is actually the same approach as the Linux one, the only difference will 
> be that the driver comes in 2 pieces - the sqljdbc4.jar file, and the 
> sql_auth.dll shared lib, which is needed for integrated authentication, and 
> which needs to be registered in the PATH environment variable (which is 
> something the Ambari Agent will be in charge of).
