Known limitations

Control Room known limitations

The Control Room does not work properly when more than one IP is assigned to a server. To work in the dual IP server environment, you need to manually define the IP that you want to use as the local IP in the following tag of the cluster.properties file and restart the services:

ignite.local.static.ip=<Primary static IP server>
Note: Updating the cluster.properties file requires complete downtime, because of which all the Automation Anywhere Enterprise clients are disconnected and no schedule triggers.
