Connecting TM1 Server to multiple Admin Host

[Ganos Lal]

Hi

Becaus of using the replication function of TM1 i want to connect a TM1 Service with 2 Admin Hosts using the Parameter "AdminHost=srv1;srv2" in the tm1s.cfg.
Now i got a problem, that the TM1 Service only connect to the first Admin Host.

AdminHost=srv1;srv2 connect to srv1 only.
AdminHost=srv2;srv2 connect to srv2 only.
Becaus of a working connection to each server i don't think it's a network issue.

We're tried it with TM1 9.5.1 and TM1 9.5.1 HF15. The same in both versions.

Thanks for your help.

that the TM1 Service only connect to the first Admin Host

Don't understand. Do you mean that if a client has "srv1" in their client config and the server config is set to "srv2;srv1" then they cannot see it in server explorer? If so this is normal and correct.

Any server after the 1st one in the server config is just to allow the servers to talk to each other. If both entries caused the server to show in explorer, then if the client has both in their config (as i do) then they would see the same one twice. Untold confusion will then reign.

Think of it as Primary and Secondary admin servers. Primary is the one a client connects to, any secondary servers are only used during replication.

Yes and no.

This was the point of my problem, because if it's in srv1 not seen, the replication won't work.

Think of it as Primary and Secondary admin servers. Primary is the one a client connects to, any secondary servers are only used during replication.

- I set teh config to srv2;srv1.
- I login the architect at srv1.
- In The list i can see the srv1 service i want to replicate to.
- By creating a new replication i can't choose srv2 service for replication, becaus it's not in the admin server.


Allthough if i start the Admin Server as Window and not as the service i can only see the srv1 service in there.

in your client config, put both srv2;srv1 as well then it'll work fine.
