The management system itself is made up of these components:
GUI Server
Device Server
HA Server
The GUI Server and Device Server working together are collectively referred to as the
NSM management system.
Figure 13 on page 194 shows these components.
Figure 13: NSM Management System
You can install both components of the management system on the same physical server
or on separate servers. By separating the two server components, you can improve system
performance.
The GUI Server receives and responds to requests and commands from the NSM UI. It
manages all the system resources and configuration data required to manage your
network. It also contains a local data store including all device configuration information,
audit log data (versioning), and almost all other information pertinent to the system
except log data sent by the managed device.
NOTE: The GUI server can accommodate no more than 10 UI clients
connected to it when NSM manages 3000 low-end devices, and no more
than 25 UI clients connected to it when NSM manages 300 high-end devices.
This limit is the maximum number of UI clients supported in this release of
NSM.
