Setup for Multiple Instances of EUREKA:Strategy Server on same Server.

 

Environment

Release:
Component: STGY

Resolution

By default, each instance of CleverPath EUREKA:Strategy Server has a separate iasuite directory. When a user connects to EUREKA:Strategy Server through a EUREKA:Strategy application, the application uses the files in the iasuite directory for the instance of EUREKA:Strategy Server to which he or she connects. However, you can have multiple instances of EUREKA:Strategy Server while maintaining only one iasuite directory.

To use multiple instances of EUREKA:Strategy Server from the same application interface, you direct the application to access a single iasuite directory. To do this, change the path to the iasuite directory by adding an IASUITE_DIRECTORY item to the GLOBAL, Group, or User sections of the EUREKA:Strategy Server resource file .axsysrc.

Note: To modify the .axsysrc file, you must either be logged in as 'axsys' or your account must have super-user privileges.

The format of the IASUITE_DIRECTORY item is: IASUITE_DIRECTORY=<directory_path> where <directory_path> is the full directory path to the iasuite directory you want to use.

To use a common application interface, add the same IASUITE_DIRECTORY item to the .axsysrc file in each instance of EUREKA:Strategy Server. For example, if you are running two instances of EUREKA:Strategy Server from directories '/axsys/release/bin' and '/axsys/test/bin' and want to use EUREKA:Strategy from the release directory, add the following item to the .axsysrc files in both directories.

[GLOBAL]
IASUITE_DIRECTORY=/axsys/release/iasuite

You can also specify different directory paths for individual users or groups. For example, the following items identify two different sets of EUREKA:Strategy application files. Users in the Test group access the set of files in the '/axsys/test/iasuite' directory and all others access the set of files in the '/axsys/release/iasuite' directory.

[GLOBAL]
IASUITE_DIRECTORY=/axsys/release/iasuite
[Test]
IASUITE_DIRECTORY=/axsys/test/iasuite
