Database server

At the center of every BMC Server Automation installation is the BMC Server Automation database server. Application Servers are tightly coupled to the database and impose significant demands on the server that hosts the database. BMC recommends the use of a dedicated physical machine or cluster to host the database server for BMC Server Automation.

The database server or cluster should be on the same LAN as the BMC Server Automation Application server. High latency (longer than 10 milliseconds) on the link between the Application Servers and the database server can cause unacceptable performance for BMC Server Automation. Additionally, high packet loss rates on the Application-Server-to-database link can cause issues for (or expose defects in) the Oracle JDBC driver.
