3.6.0 MxDB for SQL Server Installation and Administration Guide (5697-7088, December 2007)

Chapter 6: Instance Aliasing 87

Move the Mapping File

The Instance Aliasing mapping file, ia.conf, is installed with MxDB for

SQL Server. By default, the file is placed in the following location on the

drive where you installed MxDB for SQL Server:

%PROGRAMFILES%\Polyserve\matrixserver\conf\ia.conf

Before configuring Instance Aliasing, you will need to move this file to a

PSFS filesystem that can be accessed by all nodes in the matrix. All nodes

should use the same drive letter or mount point for the filesystem.

Configure Instance Aliasing

To configure Instance Aliasing, select Tools > Sql Instance Aliasing.
