Question:
When changing the server name of the multi-user server, is there an easy way to update all models to the new server without having to open each model and specify server name?
Answer:
When you have a multiuser model, Tekla Structures creates a file in the model folder called .This_is_multiuser_model. If you open this file in a text editor, it contains the following information:
tcpip:<servername>,<serverport>
<multiuser server database directory>
This is a multiuser model.
This model should not be opened with single user mode!
You can update the multiuser server information here by replacing servername on the first row.
Then, if the multi-user server information for all models is the same, copy the updated .This_is_multiuser_model file to other model folders.
