Help: config fails with: Portal myPortal already exists
I'm doing a multi-node JES Portal and having issues with the second portal server configuration command. (psconfig --config portal_server2.xml)
There are two portal webservers and as per the JES instructions I have done a configure later install followed by psconfig. The first node went fine but when I went to configure the second node it fails with a long java exception (see below). The nut of it seems to be this message suggesting the portal "myPortal" already exists. I'm expecting this as there are two portal webserver nodes living behind a load balancer.
It makes sense to me that both portal servers should have the same PortalID in their configuration xml... after all they ARE serving the same content for the same portal. By the same token I'm assuming the InstanceID needs to be different as this is a different system from the first webserver. Of course I can find almost nothing in the doc about this.
What am I doing wrong here?
