Hello Admin-Team,

Is it possible to apply predefined configuration-parameters to a new host within the farm?
Without the need to customize each new host manually.
Parameters which are to set here: Menue -> Configuration

Hi Taner,

There is only a few things that need to be configured individually. Besides the "User" pane (which is user specific), "Host" is the only host specific configuration. So there should be very little work when adding a new host. Also, farming is by default not a special host configuration so the host really does not "know" if it's running in a farm or not. This also means that setting up a host is very individual and "must" be dealt with in a such way.

However, if you're script-savvy, you can take a representative host configuration from the "FFAStrans\Processors\db\configs\hosts" folder, change the %computernam% values and save it as a new config file the same directory. Services can be installed or removed by running FFAStrans.exe from the actual (shared) program path with the "-install_service" and "-remove_service" swithes. For example:

"\\server\share\FFAStrans\FFAStrans.exe -install_service"
