You have to be able to resolve each remedy server name using whatever
names resolution method you use (hosts, dns, etc).

I am in the process of installing 7.0 on a server that has 6.3, and I
want to keep both active and separate. Environment:

Windows Server 2003
SQL Server 2000 (for 6.3)
SQL Server 2005 (for 7.0)
Mid Tier 6.3
IIS 6
ServletExec 5.0

I was able to install ARS 7.0 into SQL Server 2005 and the program files
into a separate directory (C:\Program Files\AR System 7), and specified
TCP ports for AR System Server and Plug-In Server.  The 6.3 instance is
using PortMapper.  After the installation only one instance was running
- the new one.  I restored from backup and the existing 6.3 system is
running as it was previously.

When I initially attempted to install 7.0, at the AR System Server Name
screen I entered REMEDYDEV7 (instead of REMEDYDEV) to make it unique.
The text on screen includes "To install a new AR System Server, enter a
new server name.".  Yet when I do enter a different name I get the "The
installer is unable to resolve the name "REMEDYDEV7" into an IP
address..." message.  I can rectify this message by adding an entry into
the Windows Hosts file, but that doesn't seem to be the right answer.

I searched through the Installation guide and ARS List but did not find
the specific steps to get both 7.0 and 6.3 installed on the same
computer.

What am I overlooking?

Thanks.

Stephen

Installing x copies of ARS on a server is no problem.
I have a laptop with 5.x, 6.x and 7.x on it. They all run great. No not
use port mapper. Specify a different port for each install.
example
my 5.x  server name arsystem5  port 5555   rpc 5556
  6.x  server name arsystem6  port 6666   rpc 6667
  7.x  server name arsystem7  port 7777   rpc 7778

midtier is another animal. Everytime I installed midtier it would always
update the previous version.

Subject: installing multiple AR Servers on one box

Hello List,

I am in the process of making a clean install of 6.3 on a box that
already has an existing AR 6.3 System on it.  I was wondering if anyone
had ever

done this and run into any problems with the servers fighting over
configuration files.  I am running on HPUX and am setting things up for
each AR System to have a different user etc..  Here are a couple of the
specific questions that I had.

1) Can you specify the filepath for the midtier configuration directory
(on HPUX it is by default /etc/arinstall) and also /etc/arsystem (where
the license and armonitor.conf information lives) during an install?  On
a regular install, I do not remember seeing an option for this file
path.
2) Can I just make a new configuration file and when I start the
arserver, can I point it towards that configuration file?

Thanks for your responses.

-Dave
