We have an ongoing issue where ZData Services jobs scheduled via the BOE scheduler are failing intermittently. The program object in BI executes and reports success, but the DS job never kicks off. There is an error code in the successful program history that reads: java.lang.Exception: Fail to get DS.JobLauncherService service.
There is an SAP note that expalins our issue exactly:
https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/1900533
At the bottom of the note there is additional text reading: Please note: To achieve failover for Data Services functionality you should have more then one EIM APS.
My question is how do I go about creating additional EIM APSs? I know I can clone the original server, but can they both have the same services running on each? Assuming a create a second or third clone of the original EIM APS would the scheduled program know to look for additional joblauncher services on additional EIM APSs?
