Tell us how fast the network is between where you propose to install the engines and where the databases are. That will be the main consideration.

Hi Ray,

Thanks for responding.

We have decided to install repository db locally to avoid any network delay.

I will installing service tier , engine and repository tier on the same linux red hat server.

Closing the thread..

Good call. That's why I asked the question. If you had elected to use a remote database, I would have advised strongly to use a dedicated, very high speed network segment.
