Engine
Like Domain, by default, an Engine instance referred to as “System Engine” is installed. The “System Engine” is typically assigned management tasks (i.e., group evaluation, report execution).
In most cases, installation of additional Engine instances is recommended to handle collection and replication tasks. In slides that follow, understand that there is no difference in the requirements or capabilities of “System Engine” and “Engine” - only in the tasks that would normally be assigned.
