Chris,

Thanks for your response. I'm hoping to get access to other SQL servers to
attempt multiple connections..

On another note, I could not find the installables for EIE's online help for
version 7.0.1.. Anyone knows where I could get it from?

I have already defined exchanges to tables in three different named
databases on one SQL Server (default instance), and since the Vendor
Configuration tab takes separate entries for ServerName, DatabaseName, and
login data I see no reason why I could not connect to another SQL Server as
well.  If I get a chance, I have other SQL Servers to connect to - just had
not had a reason to test it.

P.S. Each patch level of the SQL Server Adaptor / EIE application appears to
be heavily re-written from the previous versions - I have to assume that the
docs have not caught up.

Looks like there is a documentation bug on the BMC Remedy Link for SQL
Server 7.0 Administration Guide. They refer to the executable that builds
rules as rulehelper.exe whereas I see an executable called rlshelper.exe on
my installation.

Anyway, has anyone used this to build links to 2 different mutually
exclusive SQL servers?

I wanted to know if it is possible to configure EIE to connect to various
SQL servers residing on different machines. Each of these SQL servers could
have more than one database. We have a possible requirement where we might
have to connect to more than 1 database on a single SQL server. Our possible
requirement could also be that we have more than one SQL server that we
might have to have EIE connect to.

If it is not possible to have EIE connect to more than one SQL server, can a
linked server option be used together with the Remedy Link for SQL to have
these connections happen?

I would have tried the above options myself before writing to the list but
as of now I do not have access to the other SQL servers..

Rgds

Joe
