This issue occurs when the AutoServerId has two host strings as below in the config.<instance name> of primary, secondary and TB.
On the primary :
AutoServerId=<INSTANCE>_APP_<local_machine_name>, <INSTANCE>_APP_<local_machine_name>
One the shadow :
AutoServerId=<INSTANCE>_APP_<local_machine_name>, <INSTANCE>_APP_<local_machine_name>
The same on the TB.
Resolution:
The installer does this when both app servers are specified during the installation interview. We have reported this to development. This entry should only contain the local machine name prefixed by ‘<INSTANCE>_APP_’, or ‘ACE_APP_’ . All you need to do is modify both config files and set the entries like this :
On the primary:
AutoServerId=<INSTANCE>_APP_<local_machine_name>
On the shadow:
AutoServerId=<INSTANCE>_APP_<local_machine_name>
On the TB:
AutoServerId=<INSTANCE>_APP_<local_machine_name>
