Optimizer & APO in same Machine

[Former Member]

Hi All,

A quick question. Can we install both Optimizer and APO component in one single server box? Will that affect the system performance by any chance? This is for our development box.

Pls reply.

Thanks,

hi there!

I've been in a project using the snp-optimizer and scm 2007. I think scm 2007 (5.1) can be run under a windows os (64 bits) or linux. Definitely the optimizer must be in a win 64 bits server, so take care with this.

I have not seen any documentation which says it can be in same machine. I don;t think SAP suggests that. Earlier even liveCache used to be a different box from the Application server - at least now both Apps and LC can be on same physical hardware.

Also Optimisers are Windows based exe files while typical SCM servers run on Unix or related OS.

Definitely there will be impact on performance - optimiser runs by nature are very process intensive.
