Managed Server Components
A Model Manager server database is a combination of three separate server components — a SQL database for the version control management of assets, models, and data files, a dedicated directory on the file system for storing large binary and text data, and a collection of search indexes used by the Model Manager search functionality. You can either use server components managed by the Model Manager server itself, including starting and stopping component subprocesses and handling backups, or you can use external server components provided by your organization. In the latter case, you will need to handle availability and backups for the server components outside of the Model Manager server.
In this section you will learn how to add and configure such managed server components, including setting up backups for their data directories. You will also learn how to restore these components from a backup. See the next section to learn how you combine managed server components into a Model Manager server database, optionally swapping out all, or some, of the components with your own external server components.
To configure a database that is entirely managed by the Model Manager server itself, select the Managed PostgreSQL® and Managed Apache Solr™ check boxes in the Products step of the Model Manager server installation.
