Chapter 1
– Before You Install
Introduction
The Mobility Services Platform 3.3.1 (MSP) install interface focuses on the two most common
types of installation. Users that find these two install scenarios unsuitable for their installation of
MSP are highly encouraged to contact the MSP Help Desk for assistance.
Deciding Your Installation Scenario
All Components on One Server
In this installation scenario, you will install all MSP Server Components and the MSP Core
Database on one server on which your instance of SQL Server is already installed.
Components Split Between Two Servers
In this installation scenario, you will install the MSP Core Database on one server on which your
instance of SQL Server is already installed and all other MSP Components will be installed on
another server with connectivity to the SQL/MSP Database server.
