This model shows a basic configuration for the Dashboard Server:
In the diagram above, the Dashboard Server and the Manager are located on separate servers, but they can be installed and configured on the same server when on the Windows versions. However, from a performance viewpoint, it is recommended that the Dashboard Server and the Manager are run on separate servers to avoid competition for access to data.
Note
If the Manager is operating in a cluster system, the Manager and the Dashboard Server cannot be installed on the same server. In this situation, install the Dashboard Server on a completely separate server.
If the Manager and the Operation Management Server of Systemwalker Centric Manager are installed on the same server, you cannot install the Dashboard Server on that machine. In this situation, install the Dashboard Server on a completely separate server.
