MegaCorp is using SmartCenter Server with several gateways. Their requirements result in a
heavy log load. Would it be feasible to add the SmartEvent Correlation Unit and SmartEvent
Server to their SmartCenter Server?
A.
No. SmartCenter SIC will interfere with the function of SmartEvent.
B.
No. If SmartCenter is already under stress, the use of a separate server for SmartEvent is
recommended.
C.
No, SmartEvent and Smartcenter cannot be installed on the same machine at the same time.
D.
Yes. SmartEvent must be installed on your SmartCenter Server.
B
B, because smartEvent correlation causes a lot of load on the server. A seperate server for smartEvent only is very common.
B is accurate, SmartEvent will typically need 4 GB RAM to work efficiently so if the system is under stress it is best to separate the two out or use a bulkier box to run both together.
B. No. If SmartCenter is already under stress, the use of a separate server for SmartEvent is recommended.
