NAS on the same server

grazi

Is it possible to have more then 1 application server un one server?
I have 2 companies on the same server and I need to use both with biztalk and commerce gateway. Purchase order from company1 that become a Sales Order in Company2 DB using CG and BTS.

Thanks in advance

You can have more than one AppServer on the same machine. You need to run the NAS application with some parameter to register it as a service:

nas appservername=NAS2,servername=finserver, company="compname",startupparameter="param",installasservice

Thanck you very much.
I'll try asap

I'm trying to do that, but instead of Nas I use nassql.
For nassql what is the right command line?

thanks you

It's the same as in kristinn's example except change nas to nassql and servername should be the SQL-servername:

nassql appservername=NAS2,servername=sqlserver, company="compname",startupparameter="param",installasservice

grazi

OK,
I did it and now I have 2 NAS on my server:
NASSQL and NASSQL2, but when I use Biztalk how can I send a document to NAS1 or to NAS2.
I hope you can help me

Hi,

when you try to run more than one NAS in Navision 3.70 you will have to install the MICROSOFT BUSINESS SOLUTIONS-NAVISION COMMERCE GATEWAY BROKER.
After the installation you have to modify a XML config file for the broker and then you have to configure each of the NAS with the port.
There is a quite good documentation in the DOC folder of the 3.70A cd-rom. It is called the w1w1instEcomm.pdf

HTH,
Rainer

You don't directly connect to the NAS from BTS. You enter the Navision AIC into the BTS port, which is a COM+ component that lives on the server. It will be available when you install the commerce gateway components according to the installation guide.

NAS connects to the server and starts a single instance codeunit that basically listens to this component for incoming messages. Two instances of NAS means two instances of the component. You distinguish the two by giving them different names. So one NAS is listening to the instance called 'NameOne', and the other is listening to the instance called 'NameTwo'.

Now how to have two AIC's I dont know, sorry

Hi

[The call to member OpenSocket failed. SocketBusAdapter.SocketBusAdapter.1 returned the following message:
Cannot open Socket.]
You can get rid of this error if you use different port numbers for NAS (i.e. 7528, 7529) in Navision BizTalk-Setup.
