All,
I have a client who has a (CitectSCADA 2016 with the latest update) Citect Standby server for a number of clusters (6 of). The machine has really be spec'ed up and can handle the workload.
It runs well with Citect in runtime in User Session, but we want to secure it by running it as a service so that it can be logged out. All the primary server cluster machines are running separately as services with no problems.
The standby server is trying to run 37 services to support the standby servers for the 6 clusters.
When running the runtime manager as a service will only run up 31 sessions and the rest won't start (they are listed). It is actually possible to stop one and start another one, but only a total 31 can run at one time when citect runtime manager is running as a service.
When runtime manager is running in a user session and then this limit doesn't apply and all 37 sessions run fine.
Is there anyway to increase this limit with Citect Runtime Manager as a service? Yes it seems like a lot but its not a problem to with the power of this machine.
Yes Citect2016 needs attention too, but that's for another day, let's get this system performing as well as it can first.
Cheers,
Mike
