Two SAP console instance runing on same server with two different Web Links

[Former Member]

Hi,

Currently we are having Window 2003 server with IIS service activated and SAP Console 7.1 installed on it which is hosting the Production Client's Web link

Also it is having other Quality client profile and Development Client profile configured on it.

But we can activate one profile at a time, so to done testing we need to activate the Quatity client profile.

What we want is to run two instance of SAP Console at a time which will point to two different profile and use two different URL.

Is it possible to do so??

If yes then how?

You need to add another web site in IIS and configure accordingly so that WebSAPConsole for Q&A is invoked. You will have to use either a different IP address or TCP port. I'm assuming you mean WebSAPConsole, not SAPConsole, since IIS is in the picture.

Hii Samuli Kaski,

Thank you for the responce, and yes i meant WebSAPConsole

But how to add another web site in the IIS and how will these two different URLs will point to the respective instances of the WebSAPConsole on the same Server.

You don't have to setup multiple web sites. You can specify the used profile as a parameter to isapi_sapcnsl.dll, like p=<profile>. See Appendix A of the SAPConsole Help Documentation for details.

so we mean to say that if currently we are using

http://<IP>/sap/isapi_sapcnsl.dll  as the URL, the we just need to pass the profile name to the URL as http://<IP>/sap/isapi_sapcnsl.dll?p=<profile>   and it will invoke that profile????
