2.3 Decide Where to Host the Engine

  • The Engine server host should have significant CPU, disk, and memory for all but the smallest installations.

  • The Engine runs on any of the following Windows Servers:

    • Windows Server 2019

    • Windows Server 2016

    • Windows Server 2012 R2

NOTE:Micro Focus strongly recommends that you install the Engine on a member server and not on a domain controller. This recommendation might be a requirement in a future release.
