1. Objective
The following document will cover a basic install of System Center Orchestrator
2016 at a generic LAB. This is to be used as a template only, for a customer to
implement as their own pilot or POC deployment guide. It is intended to be
general in nature and will require the customer to modify it to suit their specific
data and processes.
SCORCH can be scaled to match the customer requirements. This document will
cover a typical two server model, where all server roles are installed on a single
VM, and utilize a remote SQL database server.
This is not an architecture guide or intended to be a design guide in any way.

2. Pre-requisites
2.1 Database
Collation: SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS.
SQL Feature: Database Engine Service.
2.2 Management Server
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) – Orchestrator Setup enables IIS if it is not
enabled.
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 – Orchestrator Setup installs and enables
.NET Framework 3.5 SP1 if it is not installed and enabled.
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 (which further requires WCF HTTP Activation).
2.3 Active Directory
Install all available Windows Updates as a best practice.
Create “DOMAIN\scorchsa” domain account explicitly to the Local Administrators group on
the SCORCH server.
Add the “DOMAIN\ScorchUsers” global group explicitly to the Local Administrators group on
the SCORCH server.
