Set the ServerPath Parameter for Windows Systems

The ServerPath parameter is required for Apache web servers on Windows if there are multiple server instances and you do not want these instances to share the same Agent resources (cache, logging, health monitoring). To help ensure that web server instances have their own resources, specify a ServerPath value.

The value you set for the ServerPath parameter must be an alphanumeric string unique among server instances running on the system. For example, if you have two server instances, the value of the ServerPath parameter for one instance could be MyAgent1 and the value for the second instance could be MyAgent2.

Note: Do not use a backslash (\) in the string you specify for the ServerPath parameter; all other characters are permitted.

The ServerPath parameter is not required for the following Windows platforms:

• IIS 6.0 servers (there is always only one server instance)
• Apache 2.0 servers if there is only one web server instance. The parameter is supported on these systems, but it serves no purpose.
• The Sun Java Systems or Domino web servers.

  These servers do not use the ServerPath parameter because it does not run in multiprocess mode on Windows.
