Installing the Jamf Pro Web App and MySQL on Different Servers
This section describes additional configuration requirements needed for using different servers for hosting the MySQL database and the Jamf Pro web app.
Installing the Jamf Pro web app and the MySQL database on different servers can improve performance for larger environments that require more resources. This scenario is possible for either clustered or non-clustered environments.
When MySQL is installed on a different server than the Jamf Pro web app, MySQL must have proper privileges configured for the Jamf Pro web app to access the database. Certain MySQL queries must be run before you complete the procedure below. For instructions, see the "The database user is not granted proper privileges to the database" section in the Troubleshooting Database Connectivity from the Jamf Pro Server article.
