Setting up SafeGuard Enterprise Server

 Srv     WHD

The SafeGuard Enterprise Server acts as the interface to the SafeGuard Enterprise Clients. Like the SafeGuard Management Center, it accesses the database. It runs as an application on a web server based on Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS). Make sure you use the most recent version of IIS with the latest updates applied.

For ideal security and performance, we recommend that you install SafeGuard Enterprise Server on a dedicated machine. This also ensures that other applications cannot conflict with SafeGuard Enterprise.

SafeGuard Enterprise Server also includes the Task Scheduler to create and schedule periodic tasks that can be based on scripts. The tasks are automatically run on the SafeGuard Enterprise Server. You find several scripts for different use cases in the SafeGuard Enterprise product delivery. You can use these as templates for your environment.

Starting with version 8.1 the SafeGuard Enterprise Web Helpdesk is part of the SGNServer.msi install package, see Web Helpdesk.
