Configuring the Database Only Role
The Database Only role is used in a multi-server SonicWALL
GMS deployment. In this role, the server is configured to run
only the database service. SonicWALL recommends that one of
the servers in a multi-server SonicWALL GMS deployment is
assigned a Database Only role.
Only the SonicWALL Universal Management Suite Database
service runs on a Database Only system.
The MySQL database engine is pre-installed on the SonicWALL
UMA EM5000. SonicWALL GMS can also use a MySQL
database or a Microsoft SQL Server database installed on a
server. Only the MySQL database included in the installer is
supported. On the Deployment > Role page in the
SonicWALL UMA EM5000 appliance management interface,
you can configure your SonicWALL GMS systems to use either
a MySQL or a SQL Server database.
To deploy your SonicWALL UMA EM5000 in the Database Only
role, perform the steps described in the Configuring Database
Settings section, on page 36.
