About Co-Installed Servers
A co-installed server is a server with two Windchill systems installed on it. This co-installation can either be Windchill Foundation and Windchill ProjectLink or Windchill PDMLink and Windchill ProjectLink.
Creo supports the exchange of Windchill PDM information between a Creo application and any of the co-installed server combinations.
Context
When working with a co-installed server it is important to understand the concept of context. A context is an association with a product, project, or library. On a co-installed server, you can create workspaces in the context of a product, project, or library. When you check in or checkout an object you are checking the object into a product, project, or library, depending on the context of your workspace.
