Distributed Configuration Manager setups on multiple
primary site servers
You can install DSDP on multiple primary site servers. While installing DSDP on the primary site servers,
ensure that the versions of DTK and OpenManage used in the CAS and all primary site servers are the
same.
Following are the limitations of the installation.
If DSDP is uninstalled on primary site server 1 where you have imported DTK, you cannot use the
existing boot images in the primary site server 2 or create boot images in it. Reimport DTK from the
primary site server 2 to create the boot images. The site server where DTK is first imported, serves as
the source for the boot image driver.
You can import the OpenManage Driver for a particular server model only on one primary site server.
This server serves as the OM Driver source for other primary site servers.
If two primary site servers exist, four Dell packages are displayed in the Configuration Manager
console. Of the four packages, two are the original source and the remaining two are the instances
from the second primary site.
