Question

FMS and WMS coexisting on same server

This question is quite simple to begin with. Can FMS and WMS coexist on the same server? This topic suggests that they can: FMS and WMS

But I would like for both of them to be able to use the http protocol and then they might conflict? The solution to this as I understand it is to assign each service a unique IP address on the same server (multiple NICs).

Are there other conflicts that might arise? Will performance take a big hit from running them both on the same server?

Does anyone here have experience from setting this up?

Help would be appreciated.

Michael

    Thanks for the quick answer! Sounds promising.

    A client of mine has FMS, WMS, and Helix all running on the same box, and has had no problems during the year it's been deployed.

    As long as there aren't port conflicts (which you seem to have covered), and assuming the cumulative traffic across the two servers doesn't exceed the capabilities of your hardware or network uplink, I see no reason why you should have performance issues.
