Configure redundancy in a RichClient

I’m setting up a shortcut to launch my RichClient and connect to a server. Currently, I’m using the following path:

“C:\Program Files (x86)\Tatsoft\FrameworX\fx-10\TRichClient.exe” “ /ip1:DESKTOP-H0ENFOL”

This path works, but it’s for a server.

My question is: how should I configure the path when setting up redundancy?

I followed the documentation, but it doesn’t work.

The docs give us the exact answer. For your RichClient shortcut with redundancy, the syntax is simply adding /ip2: for the secondary server:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Tatsoft\FrameworX\fx-10\TRichClient.exe" /ip1:DESKTOP-H0ENFOL /ip2:SECONDARY-COMPUTER /connectiontimeout:5

A few things to note from the docs:

  • /ip1 is your primary server, /ip2 is the secondary — the client tries ip1 first, and if it can’t connect, automatically fails over to ip2

  • /connectiontimeout:5 sets how many seconds before it switches (5 seconds is typical)

  • There’s no /redundancy flag needed on the client side — that’s only for the server startup command

The docs also mention that Runtime → Startup in Designer has a RichClient CmdLine field that auto-generates the correct command line for you based on your redundancy settings. That’s the easiest way to get the exact right syntax — just copy it straight from there rather than hand-typing it. Worth checking if that’s what you tried and it still didn’t work.

Hi. Yes, the syntax you sent us works:

“C:\Program Files (x86)\Tatsoft\FrameworX\fx-10\TRichClient.exe” /ip1:DESKTOP-H0ENFOL /ip2:SECONDARY-COMPUTER /connectiontimeout:5

Thank you for your help.
