6.2 All-In-One Deployment

The most basic deployment option is an all-in-one system that contains all of the Sentinel components on a single machine. This is a good option if you are putting a relatively small load on the system and don't need to monitor Windows machines.

For production environments, NetIQ Corporation recommends setting up a distributed deployment because it isolates data collection components on a separate machine, which is important for handling spikes and other anomalies with maximum system stability.
