Deployment types

You can deploy the components of TrueSight Smart Reporting for Server Automation in a single-site or multi-site environment. Before installing, carefully review the system requirements information in the Planning topic. 

You can use only one TrueSight Server Automation - Data Warehouse instance with a TrueSight Smart Reporting instance.

Single-site deployment  

In a single-site deployment of TrueSight Server Automation - Data Warehouse, data comes from a single TrueSight Server Automation database that is used to populate the reports data warehouse.

Multi-site deployment 

In a multi-site deployment of TrueSight Server Automation - Data Warehouse, data comes from multiple sites. This means, multiple independent locations provide data to a central reports data warehouse for consolidated, enterprise-wide reporting. Multiple TrueSight Server Automation databases populate the central reports data warehouse. In multi-site deployments, one TrueSight Server Automation database must be identified as the Primary site. This topic illustrates an example of a multi-site TrueSight Server Automation - Data Warehouse deployment. 

In this example:

• Site 1 is the primary site.
• The central reports data warehouse gets data from sites 1, 2, 3, and 4.

After the initial TrueSight Server Automation - Data Warehouse installation, you can add and modify sites by using the TrueSight Server Automation - Data Warehouse console.
