com.ca.wa.core.engine.config.ConfigException: **ERROR** More than two Servers are configured with this High Availability environment. Remove the unused server ID(s) from the table ESP_CONFIG_GROUP and restart the server.
Follow the recommendation in the Solution Document RI83557 to remove unused GUID from server configuration in the database.
Steps:
1. Run the following query to get all the GUIDs available from the table
SELECT * FROM ESP_CONFIG_GROUP where TYPE='CONFIG_INSTANCE';
2. Keep the result of the above query as a backup before modification.
3. Use the utility named "RemoveUnusedGUIDs" available in the “<DE_installdir>/bin” directory.
On Windows
You can run the utility as "RemoveUnusedGUIDs.bat --help" to get the details about the usage :
"Usage : RemoveUnusedGUIDs.bat GUID_preferred_server_to_keep GUID_secondary_server_to_keep"
For example; RemoveUnusedGUIDs.bat <GUID_preferred_server_to_keep> <GUID_secondary_server_to_keep>
On Unix
./RemoveUnusedGUIDs.sh <GUID_preferred_server_to_keep> <GUID_secondary_server_to_keep>
4. Run the "RemoveUnusedGUIDs" utility with both of the GUIDs in UPPERCASE as parameter.
