Is there a way with Ax 4.0 to setup a configuration file that will directly connect to one AOS or the other without being intercepted by the AOS manager?

We have Ax 4.0 and we run the AOS manager over 2 AOS services.

Often times I need to login multiple times until I get on the correct AOS to see the SPIDs of users.

Is there a way with Ax 4.0 to setup a configuration file that will directly connect to one AOS or the other without being intercepted by the AOS manager?

I take it your situation is as follows (read from bottom to top, forgive the poor graphing):

AOS-1 AOS-2

AOS-loadbalancer

Client

Normally you let a client connect to the loadbalancer, which then decides on what AOS to connect to. However if you create a client configuration file (use AX 4.0 Client configuration manager, its under administrative tools) with connection settings directly to AOS-1 or AOS-2, you will bypass the loadbalancer and always connect to the correct AOS.

That is how I currently have my configs setup. They work fine as long as the load balancer is not online. As soon as we turn the load balancer on it intercepts the connection and balanaces us.

Could it be that the configuration that you use has multiple servers set up to connect to? AX client uses the connections in order. So if the first connection fails, it tries the second, etc. If you have your loadbalancer as the first connection in your configuration, then it will produce the results you describe above.
