Dataminer Agent syncronisation via proxy

Hi,

It is my understanding that in order to synchronize, two Dataminer agents must have port 443, 8004 and 9004 open.

We're facing a challenge where two of our Dataminers will soon loose connectivity. In order to remedy to this connectivity issue, one option is to use a proxy in between the agents. However we'd like to have the confirmation that this can be done before building a dedicated proxy:

  • How would the Agents configuration on the cube look like? I assume one of the Agent would have the proxy IP config?
  • Would a standard TCP proxy (HA Proxy) suffice? Or are there other specifications to take into account.

Hi,

One way you could achieve this is to edit the connectionstrings between the 2 agents.
This can be done using the SLNetClientTest tool (see DataMiner Help )
Your connection string would then look like: http://<proxy-ip>:8004/SLNetService

A standard TCP proxy should be sufficient for this.
