what is the exact functionality for ASCS and SCS?

[Former Member]

I have some simple questions about ASCS and SCS:

1) what is the difference between ASCS and SCS (they are all central instances services). What is the functionality of each?

2) What is the rule to distribute them on a clustered system , e.g.MSCS?

Thanks for your clarification.
