Seon supports parallel installation on one machine with just one license key. The license key is machine dependant, so you can re-use it in every installation.

If you plan to install more than one Seon instance on a machine you have to:

  • create a separate Seon configuration file for each installation (seon.conf)
  • use a different web interface directory for each installation
  • use a different binary installation directory for each installation (like in the above used examples, "/opt/seon" should be copied completely). This also affects the incoming, outgoing, temporary, backup, RRD etc. directories (say: all directories which are configurable).
  • Use a different MySQL database. This is an absolute MUST!

You may want to share some parts of Seon between all instances, like the event scripts, backup directories or others (as you wish). This is done by configuring each instance to the appropriate values.

If you define the Seon web interface to use "file" as a configuration source, all calls from the web interface will use this configured file as a parameter for all binary calls. If configured the web interface with the type „direct“, this functionality is not available, but all calls of Seon binaries are used using the configured binary installation directory. Some scripts may need special attention if a different configuration file is used.
