Multiple Intelligent Server on single machine

A common question asked (and twisted) and newbie are trapped if answered incorrect. :-)

Answer is Yes in case of All UNIX/Linux (AIX, Solaris, UX, RH Linux, SUSE Linux) and NO for Windows.

One thing to be taken care of. Can’t run both servers on same port number. :-)

  1. Technically posible Yes , but ask this question to Support and they will tell you no , as there is licesening issue with this, Also not very partical unless you have monster of a box with say large amounts of memory. Also does not server the purpose of backup or load management. You might be think you are smart to ask this in an interview. But anybody with more experience than will think you dont have lot of implementation knowledge. Sorry if you ask me this question in an interview i just decided why i dont want to work with you.

  2. I track the users who “land” on my blog (using statcounter.com). In facts that gives me good topic to write about. I come to know what user may be looking about MicroStrategy. There were couple of hits looking answer to that question, so I thought to write about it.

    I totally agree that installation of two I-Servers on same machine is useless, at least for PROD env.

  3. Yes, We did installation (3 I-Server) in one machine AIX box. There are various types of partition you can make in AIX/Solaris boxes…..
    but we installed 3 I-Servers with different port numbers. The entire architecture works perfectly except in one area, when you configure subscription portal at particular instance it will ask for I-Server (Hostname) but not port number. at that stage subscription portal gets confuse and Sub-Portal wont work….if you are not using sub portal then u can install 3 I-Servers at single machine with the same IP.
