Hello, I don’t understand why we should configure several COM connectors (How can we do this by the way ?) with EP. Is it for load-balancing (1 COM for 25 EP external, 1 COM for IIS, 1 COM per EP internal user) ? Is the COM connector (is Axapta Business Connector the same thing ?) unable to manage a pool of SQL connection ? Thanks for reply. Regards.
A COM Client is required for each Enterprise Portal role as all permissions are role based. If you developed an EP module where everyone had the same permissions then 1 Business Connector would be required, eg EP_Internal or EP_External. So EP_Vendor, EP_Customer, EP_Empl are 3 roles so that means 3 Business Connectors. Steve.
Thank you for your response Steve. Maybe now you can explain to me how you setup 3 COM connector on one server (is it the same thing that a business connector ?). Regards
To register the COM Client you need to use the Axapta Configuration Utility. On your Axapta web server the Business Connector (new Axapta 3 terminology for COM Connector) is to be registered to run within component services. This is only done once. The Axapta licensing system determines how many concurrent connections you have have, just like buying Axapta windows clients. S.
