If you meant one of those to be the AR server, that is definitely not
recommended, at least not in production.

One more thing, can the discovery server be the same piece of hardware
as the discovery server?

** One other thing worth mentioning. The Configuration Discovery
integration relies on items that are installed with EIE. When I did the
integration, it failed because we only had AIE installed (which left out
some of the original EIE components). The answer was installing EIE and
then upgrading to AIE before performing the Configuration Discovery
Integration. This was a bug in the install process and I'm not sure if
it has been addressed yet.

The answer depends on what discovery tool you plan to use.
Here's the answer for the two that I know.
Foundation Discovery/Topology Discovery:
AR Server
CMDB
FD/TD
DSL (A local copy of the DSL is also installed on the Discovery
Server, the versions of DSL need to match on the Discovery and AR
servers)
Configuration Discovery:
AR Server
CMDB
Configuration Discovery
AIE
DSL (Configuration Discovery does not require a local install of
the DSL on the Discovery server as it looks to DSL on the AR Server for
normalization)
I believe these products have now been combined into a single
product, in which case I would imagine they would use AIE to pull data
into the CMDB and also utilize the DSL on the AR Server for
normalization.

** CMDB needs AR Server since it is an ARS application.
All Reconciliation mapping are installed when you do the Discovery
integration to CMDB. The data is passed from Discovery to CMDB using
CMDB API calls

BMC Remedy 7.1
Hello all. I am curious as to what all is required if I
were to want to use BMC Discovery to populate the CMDB?
Would I only need CMDB, Discovery, and DSL, or would
there be additional utilities or tools required (other than the obvious,
such as arserver)?
I am mainly looking to get the data into the CMDB. I'm
not concerned about presenting it in Asset Management at this point,
only in populating the CMDB.
Thanks,
