Edge compute containers

Help

I’m running docker and a losant edge agent talking to a Losant application on a Ubuntu 20 sever.
Is there a reason why I couldn’t have a second agent running as a docker as part of a different losant application?

Hey @Lars_Andersson,

Just so I understand question, you’re intending to run 2 docker containers on the same machine, both running the Losant Edge Agent?

If this is the case, there would be no issue, but there are some things to note:

  • If enabling the webserver for these agents, you will need to ensure that unique ports are used for each container.
  • Each container will need to have a unique name.
  • Both containers cannot share credentials, i.e. they cannot share the same id in the config file.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thank you,
Heath
