I need some advice on RBS setup on sharepoint 2013. I am following the microsoft article on setting RBS setup, on where you run some sql queries for the sql file stream on the content databases you want RBS to be setup on. Then i download the RBS_amd64.msi file and install it on one web front end server and enable for each content database.
My questions are that i have other web servers, app servers and db servers, do i need to install the rbs.msi exe on every other server in the farm , or just only the web servers and the app servers. Such as do we run that msiexec command on each server.
Also how does rbs work for all migrated sites or existing sites which have documents already stored. So if we enable rbs for these sites and for files over 5 mb, would that apply to only new uploaded files over 5mb, or will apply to also already stored over 5mb files.
Also does shredded storage impact the files sizes been uploaded as while, such if we configure files to be uploaded over 5 mb, will this apply to the files over this limit or does the files have to be much larger than 5 MB, such 8 or 9 mb have the rbs applied to them.
Can i be advised on these 2 questions.
Thanks
