# Linux CommServe Reference Architecture for Bare Metal Servers

The Linux-based bare metal image of the CommServe allows you to deploy the CommServe without requiring additional operating system licensing costs. You can use the bare metal image to deploy a new CommServe as either a primary or standby server. When deployed, Commvault manages all software image components, including the embedded operating system and the Commvault software.

The bare metal image supports all existing security features, including ransomware protection, and also supports CommServe Live Sync for high availability. These images are intended for stand-alone CommServe deployments only. Adding a MediaAgent to create an all-in-one configuration is not supported.
