Engine
- By default, an Engine instance
referred to as “System Engine” is
installed.
- “System Engine” is typically
assigned management tasks (i.e.,
group evaluation, report
execution).
- In most cases, installation of
additional Engine instances is
recommended to handle collection
and replication tasks.
- In slides that follow, understand
that there is no difference in the
requirements or capabilities of
“System Engine” and “Engine” only in the tasks that would
normally be assigned.

or capabilities of “System

communications with the
Domain Managers…
- Via CAM to link the
Domains and assign
the replication task to
a Domain Engine.
- Via the multiplexer to
