ESM required to install in each gateway server

    Hi All,

     

             I have a requirement to use ESM for monitoring gateway and migration of policies so now i want to install ESM in gateway.I have 2 gateway servers and those are in cluster. Now how i need to proceed 

     

    Whether i need to install ESM in each gateway server and monitor them in ESM console?

    or

    Since both the servers are in cluster, if we install in one gateway will reflect both gateways statistics in ESM?

     

    Please suggest me on this

     

    Thanks&Regards

    Good evening,

     

    The ESM is only needing to be installed once for an entire environment (multiple clusters) as long as the ESM is able to directly communicate to all nodes. If it is not able to then you need to install one ESM per environment to do offline migration and monitoring will only occur against the environment it has access to.

     

    Sincerely,
