Installing groove and groove server togather

[mohamadreza Hatef]

Dear Friends
I want to design a server for our company and I read that Groove Server
manager and groove relay can not install in same machine ??!!

1-How Can I install Groove Server manger + Relay + Data Bridge in same
server ?
2-Can I install Groove client on that machine also?

Hi there,

For if you want to use all three Groove servers in a production environment,
you really need three physical Servers:

1. SQL / Groove Manager – for smaller Groove usage having Manager and SQL on
the same machine will work. But if you are going to have over 200 Groove
users, you will want to have these on separate servers.
2. Groove Relay is an intensive read / write server and therefore must be
on its own machine. Also, you cannot run Relay and Manager on the same
server because Relay cannot have IIS installed and Manager needs IIS.
3. Due to the resource intensiveness of Data Bridge, you will want to have
this on its own server. Installing this on Manager, Relay, or SQL will cause
problems.

Also note that you cannot have the client installed on any of the server
products.
