How many robots in a machine?

Help
1

Just a simple question: I have an AR env, may I know how many robots I can create in one machine? And what about Orchestrator env?

Thanks.

You can create one robot per machine and also with single robot you can run multiple processes in a machine with different time intervals but nor same time.

In Orchestrator, you can create multiple robots. It will useful for to schedule and Monitor our Bots etc…

Hello @ww2ivy

Just to add to @lakshmans comment, in machines you can only have one robot. And each robot is capable of running multiple processes at different times. They cannot run multiple processes simultaneously.

Orchestrator
One environment can have multiple machines with one robot per each. One environment can have multiple robots because of that.
And a process can be executed in multiple machines simultaneously

Hi @ww2ivy,

You can use multiple robot in same machine.
High-Density Robots is a feature that ensures a full utilization of each machine at your disposal at its maximum potential. As a result, regardless of the Windows version a machine is running on, if you have multiple users on it, you can register a Robot on each of the users.

Here is the link. You can read more about this.

Can I register multiple users on one robot?
I mean one of the two configurations under one license?
e.g.
Conf 1:
Machine1, Robot1, Log to windows user 1, run Proces1,
Machine1, Robot1, Log to windows user 2, run Proces 2,
Machine1, Robot1, Log to windows user 3, run Proces 3,

or
Conf 2:
Machine1, Robot1, Log to windows user 1, run Process 1,
Machine1, Robot2, Log to windows user 2, run Proces 2,
Machine1, Robot3, Log to windows user 3, run Proces 3,

Robot and windows user are the same thing. The Robot account IS a windows account that Orchestrator uses to log into the server with RDP.

Yes you can have three different Robots (windows accounts) running unattended Jobs at the same time on the same server. (As long as you have enough UiPath runtime licenses assigned to that server, and have enough RDP licenses on that server)

You can even run the same Process on one machine under different Robots at the same time. During PPP we had dozens of the same Process running. 8 Robots X 4 Servers = 32 possible simultaneous Jobs.

I have 1 licence.
may I have three different robots (Windows accounts / domain) running unattended jobs / process sequentially (not at the same time) on the same server for one license, as I wrote earlier (see two examples).

Conf 1:
Machine1, Robot1, Log to windows user 1, run Proces1, Logout windows user 1
Machine1, Robot1, Log to windows user 2, run Proces 2, Logout windows user 2
Machine1, Robot1, Log to windows user 3, run Proces 3, Logout windows user 3

or
Conf 2:
Machine1, Robot1, Log to windows user 1, run Process 1, Logout windows user 1
Machine1, Robot2, Log to windows user 2, run Proces 2, Logout windows user 2
Machine1, Robot3, Log to windows user 3, run Proces 3, Logout windows user 3

could someone help?
can I configure it like below with 1 licence node-locked?

Machine1, Robot1, Log to domain\user 1, run Proces 1, log to application 1 (SSO)

Machine1, Robot1, Log to domain\user 2, run Proces 2, log to application 2 (SSO)

Machine1, Robot1, Log to domain\user 3, run Proces 3, log to application 3 (SSO)

Hi Marcin,

@postwick 's post explains all of this.

To give another simple answer: yes, you can have three robots running unattended jobs sequentially on the same server with one license.

Please note that a robot is equivalent to a windows user in this case, so your examples are kind of confusing.

Happy automating!

thanks a lot.
Robot means licence (working sequentially, not in paralle) with different windows user.

any help?
