Configuring Multiple IIS Instances

This topic describes the procedure for configuring IIS for multiple instances.

You can create more than one instance of the Process Platform Web gateway.

1. Set the following properties in the wcp.properties file.
   
   • com.eibus.web.gateway.maxinstances=n, where n is the number of processes you want. For example, com.eibus.web.gateway.maxinstances=2
   • com.eibus.web.gateway=webgateway@<machine name>, where webgateway@<machine name is the name of the LDAP entry used for configuration. 
     Note: If you do not want to use the default name, you can modify the name. For example, com.eibus.web.gateway=webgateway@srv-cordys-1w
2. Create a new connection point for each new instance of the gateway. For information on creating a connection point, see Creating a Connection Point for a WebGateway Instance.
3. Configure IIS to work with multiple instances, do the following:
   
   1. Click Start > Run and type inetmgr in the command prompt. The Internet Information Services window appears.
   2. Navigate to Application Pools, right-click the Process Platform specific application pool and click Advanced Settings.
   3. Under Process Model, specify the number of instances in the Maximum Worker Processes field.

IIS is configured to work with multiple instances of Process Platform gateway.
