Is it possible to have a CAD worker for SW and one for Creo on the same machine? Would I need to create aliases for the workers?

I always create aliases. They operate as if they are on different machines each having a different virtual hostname to from Windchill server perspective, each with their own worker daemon service and port.

Hello,

 

It is possible to have SW and Creo worker on same system. However please let us know your Creo and WGM version. 

 

The creo agent of latest Creo and WGM doesnt interfear with each other so it is safe to use. For earlier version we need to do some configuration. 

 

Thanks and Regards

Ajit
