I'm was wondering how to setup and test a mobilink client and server. Actually, the system is quite complex and I would like some guidance.
firstly, I have a windows 7 OS, would that suffice or would I need a server edition OS for me to setup.
Secondly, can I have two instances of the same server running on my system?
How should I go about getting the client and server installed and communicate ? If anyone could direct me to some links it would be much appreciated.
If you want to run MobiLink clients and servers on the same computer, then Windows 7 should be okay. Note that the MobiLink server connects to a database server (referred to as the consolidated database), such as Oracle, SQL Server, DB2 or a Sybase database. Do you also want to run the consolidated database server on the same computer?
You can run two or more instances of a MobiLink server on a computer, as long as they are configured to listen on different ports (or different NICs).
For basic client and server setup, see the first tutorial.
