Configuration and Runtime

This section provides information pertaining to configuration.

Remote Configuration with PCC

You cannot use PCC through a terminal session to configure a remote database engine. You must use PCC at the terminal server console or through a standard remote connection to configure the database engine on the terminal server machine.

Terminal Server as Network Server

You may use your terminal server as your main network server and database server. However, if you have high usage of the server as a file server as well as many terminal sessions running at the same time, you may find the performance less than satisfactory.

Another concern is having all of your mission critical services on the same machine. If it goes down, all of your services go down at once.

For these reasons, you may wish to consider distributing your mission critical services on two or more computers.
