Our design calls for a separate Orchestrator server. The documentation states "To enhance the availability and scalability of your Orchestrator setup, install Orchestrator on a computerdifferent from the computer on which vCenter Server runs".What is confusing is that vSphere 5.1 appears to install Orchestrator by default. There isn't a way to exclude Orchestrator from the install.
I do see the Orchestrator icon under vCenter Home so, if one does decide they want to separate Orchestrator on a different server how is the initial installation to be treated?
- Will the new installation recognize the default installation and redirect everything to the new installation?
- We also planned on a separate database for Orchestrator. Similar to the previous question, are there any cleanup, redirection, or other steps required related to the orginal Orchestrator DB information and tables when new installation is complete?
