Installing on Multiple Machines (Solution Installation)

Several components that make up a Windchill solution are commonly installed on separate machines in a production environment. Some of those components require other components for a multi-machine installation to work. The following components can be installed on separate machines from the Windchill solution:

Order of Installation	Component	Installation Considerations
1st	PTC HTTP Server	None
2nd	Windchill Directory Server LDAP	See the Windchill Upgrade Guide to migrate from Aphelion to Windchill Directory Server.
3rd	Bundled Oracle/Oracle/SQL Server	None
4th	Windchill Business Reporting	If you are installing these products as part of your initial installation (not updating an existing installation) and you are placing them on separate machines from the Windchill solution, install these products at this point.
5th	Windchill Solution1	None
Multiple components require a Java SDK. Read the following footnotes for installation order details.	Java SDK	Required on machines with Windchill Directory Server, Windchill solution, and Windchill Enterprise Systems Integration.
