Database Software Requirements
The server-side applications require an SQL database
that can be either a local database installed on the same server
as the ESM Console or ESM Server, or an external database installed
on another machine. If you plan to deploy multiple ESM Servers,
install the database on the ESM Console or use an external database.
Consult with the Palo Alto Networks support team if you
require integration with an existing database.
Provision a database server that meets the following prerequisites:
- Database application for use during evaluation or production. Use one of the following:SQL Server ExpressSQL Server EnterpriseSQL Server StandardVersions

Agents supported during production per database cluster250 agents150, 000 agents150, 000 agents - English- or Japanese-language version of a physical or virtual Windows Server.To determine which versions of Windows Server are supported, refer to Where Can I Install the Endpoint Security Manager(ESM)? in the Palo Alto Networks® Compatibility Matrix.
- Clock that is synchronized to the time of other ESM components (servers and console) using standard enterprise networking means such as Windows Time Service (WTS).
- Database collation using Latin1_General_CI_AS or Japanese_CI_AS. Ensure that you use the same collation for the host SQL Server system databases and the Traps ESM database.
