Distributed Considerations and Requirements

When you install CA Service Catalog products and components on multiple computers (a distributed implementation), meet the following requirements:

The first CA Service Catalog product or component that you install on any computer must be Service View.
You can install CA Service Accounting and CA Workflow on different computers than Service View. However, you install CA Service Catalog and Catalog Content on the first (formerly primary) Service View computer only.
Any computer on which you install Service View, CA Service Catalog, Catalog Content, CA Workflow, or CA Service Accounting must have either your DBMS server or DBMS client installed. This requirement applies to both SQL Server and Oracle.
Important! If you use CA Process Automation, we recommend that you do not install the CA Process Automation domain orchestrator and CA Process Automation components on the same computer.
