Cloning an Appian Server - Hostname or IP?

From Appian's point of view, host name is stored in the custom.properties file that points to the URL that the system will access. In addition to that, the license key would be linked to your FQDN as well. Having said that, why are you trying to 'clone' when you can use the CONFIG script to build the environment of choice without having to go through these challenges?

Hmm, I am curious about your idea. I think I didn't get the point about the CONFIG script, although I looked at this guide. As far as I know you can deploy custom configuration to Appian/JBoss only. Is it possible to deploy the whole applications like Appian or JBoss?
Please, could you describe the proper scenario to me?
Thnks

Installation of other services is just a standards command script. So you can create a batch or .sh file that installs Appian & database, then runs the config script, which in turn will install jboss as well as configure the platform for you. You can parametrize the entire configuration based on where you're deploying the services.
Depends on what your use case is (i.e. why you want to clone the instances in the first place )

Thank you very much for your clarification, Sathya.This way it will do.
