      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      There are some occasion that user would be connecting JIRA to a database from a named instance of SQL Server instead of the default instance. In the dbconfig.xml we would need to manually specify the instance name to connect to JIRA such as:

      jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://localhost:1433/jiradb;instance=instance_name
      

      KB article for named instance:

      Suggestion:
      It would be great to add a field named "Instance Name" under SQL Server section for installation page and Configuration Tool so that they can configure the named instance directly without modifying the dbconfig.xml.

      Another consideration if the feature is implement which the port number would be different as each instance listen to different port.
