Since the home directory is shared between the unix servers,  when i try to launch the client from one server while the client is opened with another server. Its throwing an error which says the client is already open.

I have a scenario that i need to connect from different servers simultaneously. Can someone please help me to setup the client to open in different servers simultaneously

    Hi,

    i'm not sure if i can help you...

    Open IntegrityClientSite.rc and add in the last line:

    IntegrityClient.port = 0

    Maybe you have to define different homedirectory for every Client. There is an Enviromentvariable called:

    MKS_IC_INSTANCE_DIR

    Have a look at Knowledge Base Articles:

    You need to explain your use case better. It is not clear if you're trying to run one client connected to two servers, or two instances of the client on one server.

    If you're trying to connect one client to two servers (or even more), it's staightforward if you allow that in your client preferences. You don't need to run multiple clients just because you want to connect to multiple servers.

    If you're trying to run two clients on the same server, I suspect there's something wrong with this use case and we need more details.

    Hi Laurent,

    In my case, multiple client sessions from different servers should connect to the single server for the same user ID.

    Reason behind this scenario is, for build purpose we use the single ID to run the build from different locations so if we close any session it will affect others so we designed to run without closing the open session as per PTC recommendation

    We are using load balancer to select the servers in the build, so when the load balancer selects the alternate server due to open session in other server, its throwing an error in alternate server

    Error:

    ./integrity: Failed to connect to Integrity Client. Ensure that another Integrity Client

    is not running under the context of your configuration file (by default

    .IntegrityClient.rc) and that the IntegrityClient.port specification is valid.

    the error message looks like the aforementioned instantiation:

    Have a look for the Environment variable MKS_IC_INSTANCE_DIR

    CS196858

    CS83602

    You have to script your builds and give them different locations with the environment variable.

    now you can start more instances from the same client on one machine.
