Hi,
I was exploring the part of CRM 2013 installation, where it says the server roles can be separated thus making it highly scalable. I have a question for some one who has knowledge about this or has actually done this.
I have gone through the topic which shows how to install Dynamics CRM 2013 using command line and a xml which contains the configuration.
This topic lists out the complete XML; where all the roles are installed in the same server. Now my question is for the part where we can split up the roles.
This and
this post gives the XML for installing roles; but it seems that some things are missing. I mean if I were to separate the roles into two parts for my deployment, one XML containing
the front end roles and the other the backend and deployment administration roles, will XMLs similar to the ones above work? Because things like the following tags are missing from the two sample XMLs:
<OU>OU=value,DC=subdomain,DC=subdomain,DC=subdomain,DC=com</OU>
<crmkeysettings><crmkeysetting>.....
Where do I need to put these tags? Would these go in the front end roles or back end roles XML? Also, if I split up roles and do the CRM installation by XML, will it automatically create the AD Groups (SQLReportingGroup, UseProvGroup, etc.) and add the required
users to them? Or does that need to be done manually?
I am new to CRM administration, which explains this long question. :) Please could anyone assist me with this? Thanks.
