Basically I want to know if anyone has some idea or document describing details for "Two PCS7 Batch servers from different multi projects and are in same network" Below are details: - Batch Server stations are with different Names - Process cell and Process cell name for both batch server is also different. - OS Server station for respective batch servers are also with different names. - Symbolic name for OS server is different for both OS servers. - Will the batch servers conflict ?? - Any reference document available for same??? I have already gone through batch manuals and other documents, but didn't get any information for same. Thanks!!! in advance for sharing any information.

When one of the batch server is in running status..another doesn't goes in running status. If i restart the previous one or break the network..then the second server goes in Run status. Any idea about it.or some guidelines for same.. Thanks

For VLAN..unforunately the systems are in domain and connected to domain LAN. so configuration of VLAN has restrictions. . . . Basically my observation is : - When Batch server1 is in run status another batch server2 doesn't comes in run status. it shows project error. - So basically I follow one procedure...when batch server1 is in RUN mode, I change the terminal bus configuration in SIMATIC Shell only for this system (batch server1). - Due to this procedure, connectivity of OS Server and clients to Batch server1 is NOT lost, but Batch server2 also comes in RUN status. So now both Batch servers are in RUN status. - But when if Batch server1 is restarted it doesn't comes in RUN mode after restarting. Even after switching back simatic shell configuration before restart, it doesn't comes in run mode. Then i have to change the simatic shell configuration of running batch server station to make the other batch server station come in run mode. Any solution for this...... Thanks!!!!
