balancing and increase of system availability.
1. When Setting Up the Authentication Server on One Machine and the Repository Server on
Another Machine (Middle-scale System)
This system configuration is suitable when the number of users in the business system and the number
of simultaneous accesses to the business system are low in volume.
If the number of users within a business system increase and simultaneous access also increases,
authentication servers can be added to change the system configuration in order to match the setup
described in item 2 below.
