Q

True or False:

The Orion Platform does not support the merging of Two complete Orion instances into one system.

A

True

This is because of the following:

Merging data/tables from one Orion database to another is NOT supported. Each Orion instance has its own SQL Server and database and the database cannot be merged into one.
