Adding server connection from ArCatalog with ArcGIS Server , DB, ArcGIS Desktop all installed on 3 different servers.

Hello ,

I have the following set up in my network.

1. ArcGIS Server and Portal for ArcGIS installed on a machine (A) with Linux OS

2.Oracle DB installed on another machine (B) with Linux OS as well

3. ArcGIS for Desktop installed on another machine (c) with Windows OS

I have created the geodatabase in ArcGIS Desktop that connect to the Oracle DB on machine (B) and it worked.

But, I am wondering if it is possible to add the ArcGIS Server connection from Desktop even if the DB is not installed on the same machine as ArcGIS Server. Will that work? Is it a possibility to have all the 3 installed on 3 different machines?

Thank you,

Yes. It is possible.
