Where should Canary Admin be installed?
Currently I have ignition in 1 server and the canary admin installed in a separate server. I want to use the second server as my historian as well
Do you guys suggest I uninstall canary admin in the 2nd server and reinstall it in the first server? Because it seems according to the instructions the canary admin and ignition gateway should be on the same machine

Hi tarek. rahman
The Canary Admin will be included when you install any Canary services on a server. In your case, the Canary Admin would be on both servers. If following best practices when installing Canary with Ignition, the Sender service should be installed local to the Ignition gateway to utilize our Store & Forward technology. Installing the Sender would also install the Admin service and the Canary Admin client so that you can then configure the Sender as needed.
When installing the historian on the 2nd server, this too will include the Canary Admin.
