Hello FME Folks,

 

I know that we can run multiple FME Desktop version on same Windows Machine with same licence.

Can we do that with FME Server on different Windows Server machines?

We have a SmallWorld DB incompatibility for our FME Server upgrade and EO SmallWorld upgrade will happen later.

SO, we have to run two FME Server environment. Is that a red flag ? OK?

Thanks,

Vivek

There is nothing stopping you from installing two versions of FME Flow on different machines. They can’t share the same underlying database or shared resources therefore they wont have any level of interaction


You would need multiple licenses though! I presume that is actually the basis of your question.

 

But instead of creating a whole new FME Flow environment, if you have multiple engines under you FME flow, you can set engines up on different servers. The engine versions can differ.


Actually, probably a good idea to talk to your reseller as they might be able to help you out. There are quite a few options to help you achieve this depending on your current setup, such as dynamic engine/cpu time if you only have one engine license and you never know what other options could be provide for low/no cost.


+1 for working with your FME reseller for this very common scenario.


Thanks!

Will do!
