Checklist for installing on multiple machines

This table shows the tasks you must complete, before you start installing your farm on multiple machines:
Completed Task
Verify that the services on all machines use the same version.
To rollout the software to multiple machines or servers, you can use your local provisioning software from 3rd party vendors to patch multiple servers.
Ensure that all certificates are trusted on all machines of the farm.
For optimal machine distribution and sizing aspects, see Hardware and Software Recommendations.
Install the required relational database providers on all machines where you plan to install services that require relational database access: OLAP Service Worker, OLAP cluster node, Application Studio Service Worker, Modeling Service Worker, Financial Applications Service Worker, Consolidation Service Worker, and Application Engine Service Worker.
Specify the correct ports for communication with the services.

If your business data source is not an SQL relational database, ensure that the relational providers which you will define as data connections are installed on all machines of the farm.

Ensure that the Service Controller uses the same account on all machines.
