Multiple "worker" AMP-servers

[wioxjk]

Hi,

For some reason, I gotten the notion that AMP supports managing multiple servers.
For example, one node can deploy instances on multiple physical or virtual servers, and then deploy game-servers on those ones.

Thanks!

That’s correct - it’s referred to as Controller and Target mode.

No special steps are required. You simply pick which mode you want to use during the setup process. Each machine you’re using to run AMP game servers needs a copy of AMP installing on it and you configure them as Targets.

ADS Deployment Modes

ADS (Application Deployment Service) is AMPs central management system for provisioning and providing access to server instances. It has 4 different deployment modes depending on how it’s going to be used. Standalone, Controller, Target and Hybrid. When setting up ADS, the default is Standalone. If you are using a single computer/VPS for AMP - this is the option you should select. Standalone Standalone mode is used when you’re deploying AMP on just a single computer/VPS. ADS provides manageme…

Thanks!
Yes, that is what I understand is possible. But I fail to find documentation about how to register workers/targets.

You just run through the install process on each machine. That’s it. No special steps required.

When you install the amp server and go into the web based portion of the install, on the controller instance that you are setting up make sure to select the controller, then on your target nodes during that same step in the process you select target node, it will then walk you through the steps to add the details and credentials for the controller, it will add itself to the controller and set up everything else.
