Standard Installation

We recommend that you use the standard installation for CA APM, which uses a three-tiered architecture. The standard installation option structures your environment to grow with your company. As shown in the following illustration, the standard installation includes client browsers and requires a separate physical or virtual server for each of the main services: web server, application server, and database server.

Note: For the standard installation, if CA EEM is already installed and configured on the server that you specify as the application server during the CA APM installation, the product uses your existing CA EEM for authentication.

Important! CA APM has time-sensitive processes. Verify that all servers are set to their correct date and time with their respective time zones.
