Geneos - Can I run two Active Consoles on the same machine. – Support - ITRS Group

The answer is yes, however there are some stipulations in place to ensure this is done in the correct manner.

Do not use a shared workspace for both Consoles, have a unique workspace per instance.

Do specify the configurations and logs to be written to a specific unique directory - per instance.

Use the -wsp flag to do this. The ActiveConsole.gci file should be modified with this.

Example

-wsp
C:\ActiveConsole2\ACGA6.3\Logs

-gse-wsp

C:\ActiveConsole2\ACGA6.3\Logs

The active console flags are documented in the below link
