Creating Sites

A Site represents a facility or location in your enterprise at which physical servers are installed. In the Installations tree, the Site node is a container of individual servers.

When creating a Site, note the following:

You cannot have two Sites of the same name directly beneath the same Site Group (parent) node.
Sites cannot contain Site Groups or other Sites.
You must have the Edit Installation Hierarchy user security privilege Permissions associated with each role that define the features of the application a user is able to view and the functionality in the application the user can access. assigned to create a Site node.

Segregating Data Center Zone Server Roles and Site Zone Server Roles in Separate Sites

For higher-level deployments (L2 and above), make sure that a site node in the Installations tree does not contain a server that has both Data Center Zone server roles and Site Zone server roles activated. All the servers under a site node must contain only active Data Center Zone server roles or only active Site Zone server roles.

If you have a site node that contains a server with both active Data Center Zone server roles and active Site Zone server roles, you cannot enable HTTPS for specific sites. You also cannot enable Data Center SSL Offload.
