Hi:

Actually, regarding multiple soft IOCs on the same host at the SNS,
I don't think we have any severe Channel Access issues.
We no longer set the EPICS CA SERVER PORT to a unique number.

You might not think so, but you do:


Any client that does not use UDP broadcasts for name resolution will only see an arbitrary one of the soft IOCs on that server.

Try it: Using EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST=NO (to suppress broadcasts) and EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST=<your server> (to allow directed UDP traffic

Must of course be EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST=<your server> - bloody cut'n'paste...
