Manage Multiple Projects in Project Server

R

Rohit Soni

I am a project manager who has just started to use Project Server 2007 and
Sharepoint 3.0 for managing my projects.

I have 4 Projects, two of them have more than 20 people working on each of
these projects.

Currently I run these on Virtual Machines and I have 2 Different configured
for each of these projects.

Like VM1 is - http://myprojectserver-proj1/pwa
and VM2 - http://myprojectserver-proj2/pwa

I've got multiple sub-projects under these projects there are sub-projects
so each of these environments look like
http://myprojectserver-proj1/pwa/sub-proj1
http://myprojectserver-proj1/pwa/sub-proj2
.....
http://myprojectserver-proj2/pwa/sub-proj1
http://myprojectserver-proj2/pwa/sub-proj2
..... and so on

Going forward I'd like to run everything on a single server
so I'd like to have something like
http://myprojectserver/pwa/project1/sub-proj1
http://myprojectserver/pwa/project1/sub-proj2
http://myprojectserver/pwa/project2/sub-proj1
http://myprojectserver/pwa/project2/sub-proj1
while preserving the current functionality pwa provides...

any pointers so as how can I achieve this would be appreciated...

In your new environment you will need to create project 1 and project 2 and
create the sites directly under PWA as pwa\project1 and pwa\project2.

Then you need to create the sub-projects and when you create the workspace,
set the URL so that is sits under the projects 1 and 2 as needed. In MSPS
2007 you can create project workspaces as sub-sites of other project
workspaces so the naming would work out for you like you want, i.e.
....pwa/project1/sub-proj1 and ...pwa\project2\sub-proj2.

What I mean by that is that you could name a workspace sub-proj1 more than
once if you deploy it once under project1 and then a second time under
project2 thus creating unique URL paths. However, you will not be allowed
to store the project name sub-proj1 more than once in the Project database.
