Application high-availability is supported only with the Oracle database. 

Best practice
BMC recommends that you deploy the Oracle database and TrueSight Infrastructure Management Server on separate servers.


Note

The Load Balancer Health Check URL formats have changed between TrueSight Operations Management versions 10.x and 11.x. For more information, see Guidelines-for-load-balancers.
