Introduction › CA SRM Components › Application Server

Application Server

The Application Server is the main CA SRM component. It interacts with all other components.

Processes that run on the Application Server include the following:

• Evaluating requests
• Scheduling the operations necessary to service the request
• Storing the scheduled operation descriptions
• Matching the requests for services with currently available resources
• Initiating service execution

The processes the Application Server performs are transparent to the user. After you initially configure the Application Server, you do not need to perform any other tasks, unless troubleshooting is required.

CA SRM is shipped with two concurrent database connections for the Application Server. If you want more database connections, contact your CA representative.

If you change the domain of the Application Server machine, the original domain data remains in the Domain table. To collect data about the new domain, you need to uninstall and then reinstall the Application Server.
