# System Requirements

SharePoint OData Connector can be installed as part of a larger system that includes an IDOL Server and an interface for the information stored in IDOL Server. To maximize performance, Micro Focus recommends that you install IDOL Server and the connector on different machines.

You can install the connector and CFS on the same machine and hard disk. However, to maximize performance, Micro Focus recommends that you install the connector and CFS on separate machines.

For information about the minimum system requirements required to run IDOL components, including SharePoint OData Connector, refer to the IDOL Getting Started Guide.

## OmniGroupServer

To use Mapped Security to protect documents that you extract from SharePoint and index into IDOL, you must install OmniGroupServer. OmniGroupServer can be installed anywhere on the system, but it must be able to communicate with the connector, your Active Directory, and your IDOL Server.
