I'm facing couple of challenges. Here is what I did...
I have created DB say 'MDM' on 2012 DB server.
1 .I have selected 'MDM', when I see 'Apply' button, which is not enabled. The reason, it is asking to create profile, which is not allowed in my org. Is profile compulsory? Without creating profile, can't we use master data services / 'MDM'?
2. I don't have IIS on DB server, and I can't install as it is not permitted. So can I install master data services on App server and select 'MDM' DB? Will this work?
