As far as I know, all three can be on the same or different hosts and you can
mix and match operating systems also (assuming you have the licenses). Just
recently I installed Oracel 8.1.6 and IAS (including Forms 6i server) on the
same HP-UX box (different homes). This was done because the current load is
very light and the client didn't want to invest in more hardware than needed
yet. But the more common scenario is OAS/IAS on a separate host with the
Forms Server -- though the Forms Server can be on a separate host as well.

<< Forms Server on Different Machine than Database
Using Forms 6i and RDBMS 8.1.5 and OAS 4.0.8.1 on Windows NT 4.0 SP5, is it (un)advisable to put the Forms server and OAS on a different Host than the Database?
Since I also want to run Oracle Fail Safe on the Database server, it seems a lot simpler to keep the app/web servers separate from the database server. I know OAS 'MUST' go on a different host, what about Forms? It that possible? Received on Mon Oct 02 2000 - 16:09:48 CDT
