Some MV products are essentially stand-alone code and can run with or without supporting infrastructure. For example, you can run CMF (an RMF alternative) as a plain-jane standalone product. It has less function when used this way, but you can do it. Others (e.g. MV-AO) have both product and infrastructure in the one bundle and do not require separate server address spaces But most of the products require the MV infrastructure. At present that is a separate started task that provides common services as well as being the communications hub for multisystem communication. Depending on your options you may also have one or more additional server address spaces, e.g. the MVE gateway address space provides communications for the MV Explorer GUI. We are in the process of revamping and restructuring all of our infrastructure technologies to make it simpler to install and configure and more reliable overall. Those changes will be rolled out over the next 9-18 months. When we are done there will probably be fewer address spaces, but they will be more flexibly configured. More than that I can't say without a whiteboard and an NDA.
