Servers and the Enterprise Model Database
The Experion Enterprise Model Database (EMDB) comprises the engineering definitions of
your system components, assets, and alarm groups.
EMDBs are created as part of an Experion installation procedure, which requires that you
identify the node(s) on which you want to install the EMDB. You therefore need to consider
the following questions before installing Experion:
n
On which server (or redundant server pair) should the EMDB reside?
n
Do you require more than one EMDB per system?
Attention:
n
If you choose to install the EMDB on a redundant server pair, you must
install the EMDB on both server A and server B.
n
Although it is possible to have multiple EMDBs, it is recommended that
you only have one EMDB in an Experion system.
ESM Server
The ESM server maintains the node configuration details that are used by the Installation
Builder and Diagnostic Studio.
You can have only one ESM Server in a system, and the ESM Server must be located on a
server-grade computer. During the installation of Experion nodes, you can choose to install
the ESM Server on an Experion node, or you can install an ESM Server on a non-Experion
node from the ESM application media.
