hi,
I am currently trying to instantiate 2 or more instances of thingworx on a single machine for trying Thingworx for high availability.Can you specify the different software along with their version that are required to setup Thingworx 7.0 for high availability?.Are their any tutorials that can help me with the setup?
Hi Jugal, having more than 1 ThingWorx deployed on same machine and same tomcat isn't a good idea as you will likely have to rename the webapp for it to be deployed same tomcat, for your quest to setting up high availability for ThingWorx I would recommend going through these documentations
1. High Availability for ThingWorx 7.0 http://support.ptc.com/WCMS/files/169477/en/ThingWorx_7.0_High_Availability_Administrators_Guide.pdf
2. ThingWorx PostgreSQL High Availability https://support.ptc.com/WCMS/files/169519/en/ThingWorx_PostgreSQL_High_Availability_1.pdf
3. How to configure ZooKeeper in ThingWorx (High Availability)HA? https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS241504&lang=en_US
Hope this helps.
Hi Jujal,
If you want to install HA, on single machine is not enough. Three instences is suggested. Please follow below link for basic ThingWorx HA knowledge. https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS241735&posno=1&q=HA%20tony&ProductFamily=ThingWorx&source=sea…
To be honest, HA is a little bit complex and you may get blocked sometimes. I am setting up my ThingWorx HA recently, if there is any concern, we can discuss together.
