Installing Business Portal on a Farm?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have an existing Sharepoint 2010 Farm in place (1 SP server and 1 SQL Server) and would like to install Business Portal for the first time.  I'd prefer to have BP installed on a different SP server in the farm rather than place it on the same main SP server.  I heard that we may have to install BP on every server in the farm regardless of which server it is located on.  Is this true?

Thanks!

    Eric,

    In a farm configuration you have the option to install BP on more than one server, but it's not required. In a standalone configuration you can only use one webserver.

    The accounts you setup are the biggest consideration. Starting in Chapter 6 of the BusinessPortalInstallation.pdf  document they discuss what is required of this.
