Subsystem Configuration Overview
Once you install CS on a host, you are ready to configure any subsystems that will run on
that host. You can configure multiple subsystems on a host, or multiple instances of a single
subsystem. As part of your deployment planning, you should decide which subsystems will
be needed and on which hosts those subsystems will be deployed.
You can configure subsystems in any order, but you may want to plan the order to provide
the smoothest setup of your deployment. For example, if you are going to be setting up a
hierarchy of Certificate Managers, you should install the root CA first. You might also want
to install a Certificate Manager that will develop a trusted relationship with other
subsystems first.
