DB configuration for existing Orchestrator

Hi, Forum

Below is an example: [image] Install Orchestrator from the command line using the DB_CONNECTION_STRING and APP_ENCRYPTION_KEY parameter. For more information on command line parameters, s…

One question here what do you mean by multiple orchestrators? Is it for load balancing ?

Hi @Anil_G

The multiple orchestrators does mean the redundancy architecture sucs as active-active. So, in this case, two OCs should be able to share the same DB.

Dint get you…if you are saying you want for two different instances which are used for two different purposes then i dont think so…as the same data will replicate between both

Hi, @Anil_G

The redundancy architecture of active-active is a typical deployment configuration for the purpose of failover and load balancing where the Orchestrators share the same database.

What I want to do is to change database connection of the existing Orchestrator from the SQL Server A to SQL Server B without necessarily reinstalling the Orchestrator.
