Running multiple Content Deployer instances on a single machine

You can run multiple instances of the Content Deployer side by side as microservices. To do so, perform the installation multiple times, ensuring that you provide unique values in each case.

About this task

The first Content Deployer you installed as a standalone microservice was created using the following default settings:
ParameterValue
nameTridionDeployerService
displayNameTridion Deployer Service
descriptionTridion Deployer Service
serverPort--server.port=8084

For any subsequent Content Deployer you want to install as a standalone microservice on the same machine, first edit the installation script you intend to use (installService.ps1, start.ps1 or start.sh) to give these parameters different, unique values. For the serverPort parameter, bear in mind that ports in the range 8081-8088 are all default ports for the various Content Delivery microservices and are therefore best avoided. After making these changes, follow the normal procedure for installing Content Deployer as a standalone microservice.
