Hello everyone,

Currently we have 2 Windows servers in a clustered environment. Is there a setting in HealthShare for a TCP/IP Operation to use the virtual IP address when initiating the connection, rather than the host IP address?

Thanks in advance!

You're right, that's just where the details are. This is the info for the TCP outbound adapter.

As you're asking about an outbound connection, I'm not clear what you mean by making HealthShare "use the virtual IP address" of your 2-server Windows cluster. Please explain.

In each production component, there should be a setting for "Local Interface" that allows you to control the interface. If you have a separate interface for the VIP vs. the machine IP, it will work. If they use the same interface, there's no way to control it.

That doc section refers to inbound interfaces, but the OP seemed to be talking about outbound ones.
