Hi,

I have 5 FIM Portal Server in production. I need below clarification.

Can you confirm if I can install FIM Reporting in just one server which have FIM Service installed on that?

Or

Should we run this on every FIM Service Portal [Suppose we have 5 Portal Servers]?

Can someone clarify my doubt?

I understand FIM Reporting is a component of FIM Service. So FIM Reporting installation should not depend on how many portal production architecture have, it can be installed on one of the FIM Service Ser

FIM Reporting really has nothing at all to do with the portal directly:

Thank you very much. Yes had the same thought but you confirmed it. Thanks once again.

Furthermore, even if it is not described in any documentation, you cannot install FIMReporting on more that one server. I've tried a couple of times in lab environments, but you can only have one FIMService node, where FIM Reporting role is installed.

So you would fail to install FIM Reporting on the other node (if FIM Services uses the same database).
