Curious Question- Multiple Admin Servers

Post by aostreicher »

Is it possible to run multiple admin servers from a single host server? I am distinctly referring to the admin server - not TM1 instances (which I am aware multiple instances can run from a single admin server).

I know this would require some redirecting of files and also different port numbers. Does anyone know specifically which files, etc.? Has anyone done this and could provide me some guidance? I would greatly appreciate any feedback in direct reference to either having attempted or done this. Thanks!

The problem is you would have to change the port that the Admin Host service uses to communicate with the TM1 Server services and that is not a configurable option. So, the answer is no AFAIK.

You cold always break the server up in to several virtual machines. I would say however that the only real benefit of this is to save money on tin which may be off set by memory upgrade costs anyway.
