Understanding Planning for Data Sources
It is important for you to plan for data sources. The proper identification of all required data sources is critical to having a correct configuration that supports the needs of the business. Be sure to include all machines and all databases in your enterprise.
To plan your data sources:
Evaluate the location of the system data.
Identify all of the enterprise servers in the configuration that will host logic:
Set up one distributed processing data source for each enterprise logic server.
Set up one Server Map data source for each distributed processing data source.
Evaluate how many groups of EnterpriseOne objects you require to support the business environment, such as production, pristine, and development. Set up one Central Objects data source for each group of objects.
Evaluate the various locations of the business data:
Set up one Business Data data source for each database and library that contains Business Data tables that EnterpriseOne applications use.
Set up one Control Table data source for production and one for testing.
