Multiple installations of Apache Geronimo pointing to one copy of bin/schema/lib

Hi,
   Is it possible to have multiple installation of AG with all of them
having a common bin, lib and schema. I am referring this link
(http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC20/multiple-repositories.html) where it
suggests that bin/lib/schema are read only and can be shared between
instances. Is it possible to share them between different installations?

Thanks
Ashish

Hi Ted,

We have diff users and their local install of AG in their user directory in
UNIX. Since bin/lib/schema are common and read only that’s why we are
looking for multiple installation of AG.

Pl suggest if you have pointers for below scenario, it will be great and
much appreciated:

1) Install geronimo at multiple location. Suppose C:/Ag1, D:/Ag2, F:/Ag3
2) Now since lib, bin and schema are read only. What I will do is to keep a
copy of bin, lib and schema at a location Q:/Centralloc. 
3) Remove bin, lib and schema folder from Ag1, Ag2 and Ag3.
4) Now can we use Q:/Centralloc/bin to start Ag1, Ag2 and Ag3? Here Ag1, Ag2
and Ag3 will have different PortOffset.

How can we achive this ?


Thanks
ABPB

It seems that multiple server instances of one installation is a
better solution than multiple installations.  What is your motivation
for multiple installations?

Hi Kevan,
           I am trying to simulate the following
1) Install geronimo at multiple location. Suppose C:/Ag1, C:/Ag2, C:/Ag3
2) Now since lib, bin and schema are read only. What I will do is to keep a
copy of bin, lib and schema at a location C:/Centralloc.
3) Remove bin, lib and schema folder from Ag1, Ag2 and Ag3.
4) Now can we use C:/Centralloc/bin to start Ag1, Ag2 and Ag3? Here Ag1, Ag2
and Ag3 will have different PortOffset.


Thanks
Ashish

Ashish,
I don't understand what you are looking for... Perhaps if you  
explained what you want to achieve, rather than how to do it?

As you've noted, you can generate multiple server instances (e.g.  
servers A, B, C) from a single installation of geronimo. I'm not sure  
why you'd want to share these directories in multiple installations  
of geronimo. It could be done using symbolic links, I guess, but the  
benefits are escaping me...
