Creating Links between projects on different web instances.

G

GG

We have 4 different groups(BUs) each with their
own Web instances on a single Server ,and then each has
their own SQL database on a same server.

What is the recommended method to link Projects between
each of the server instances?

Can we use the DSN to link tasks between servers?
Has anyone testing this functionality out?
Need to know if this will work ASAP.

Any suggestions is appreciated!!

Hi GG,

I'm not sure why you have a requirement to have 4 instances, but that will
cause you headaches with the type of scenario you are looking to address.
MSP does not provide a facility for sharing multiple instances and there is
no replication capability. Therefore, the best you can do is have PM's
share their key dates with other PMs and have them manually update their
schedules.

You can still use the notifications to automatically send an e-mail from one
PM to another so they can see if the task is still on time or if it is
slipping.

I would seriously consider using one instance though.
