All Components on One Computer

Install all server components on one computer only for proof of concept or in demonstration environments where the user load is small. As the gateway must be located with the Web server, the single computer must also be running a Web server.

This section refers to the gateway, application tier components, content manager, and content store. These components are all part of IBM® Cognos Analytics and must be installed as part of those products.

In the following diagram, all Controller server components are installed on one computer, and the client applications are installed on another.
