Install a Resource Broker

Each resource zone must have at least one resource broker installed on a Windows 2019 x64 or Windows 2022 x64 server in your network. If your deployment has only one resource zone, which is Default, you must install at least one resource broker in the Default zone. We recommend installing two or more resource brokers in each resource zone for work distribution and redundancy. You can install 200 resource brokers across all of your zones. All 200 may be in one zone or dispersed across each of your zones. You cannot generate an install key or run the installer once this threshold is reached.

If using a proxy or firewall, allow traffic from the resource broker outbound on port 443 before installation. External traffic includes:
  • <yoursite>.ps.beyondtrustcloud.com or the IP this URL points at
