Setting up multiple CRF Submit and Document Generator servers

To make work order processing more efficient and to achieve optimal performance, the system can distribute processing among multiple CRF Submit and Document Generator servers.

The work orders from all of the CRF Submit servers access one database server and are visible on all of the CRF Submit servers.
A group of CRF Submit servers can retrieve data from a study and generate the XML for one work order.
A group of Document Generator servers can generate the HTML and then the PDF files for one work order.
Each server must have access to the shared output directory to ensure that the PDF, XML, and HTML files are stored in the same location.

For more information, and examples of multiple server configurations, see the Installation and Maintenance Guide.
