In a multi-server installation, you can install the Simphony application and database components on separate servers.

The following table outlines the process for installing Simphony:

Table 3-1 Multiple Server Installation

Database Type	Description
Oracle Database	When installing Simphony with an Oracle database, you can install Simphony database components on separate database servers from a remote machine while installing Simphony on the application servers. For properties using separate servers for the Simphony application and databases, install an Oracle 19c Client on all application servers so that it can connect to the remote database server.

Ensure all of the pre-installation tasks have been completed as outlined in the Pre-Installation Tasks chapter.

1. Using the Simphony installation media, select and install Database Component Only on the database servers.
   1. After setting up the database components on the database servers, access the Simphony application server. Using the Simphony installation media, select and install Application Components Only.
