QlikView Server allows for Max concurrent reloads to be configured in the QlikView Server Settings, but a Publisher is licensed

The QlikView Server allows for Max concurrent reloads to be configured in the QlikView Server Settings, even though a Publisher is licensed in the environment. 

This can lead to either an error banner showing ReloadEngine@SERVERNAME is down (see article ReloadEngine@SERVERNAME is down displayed in the QlikView Management Console after an upgrade ) or to the Max Concurrent Reloads being configurable in the incorrect service tab.

Environment:

QlikView all versions

 

Resolution:


It is possible to remove the extra Reload Engine and to connect the QlikView Server to the correct Publisher / Distribution Service. 
 

  1. Stop the QlikView Management Service service via Windows Services applet
  2. Navigate to the configuration file for the QlikView Management Service, by default located in C:\Program Files\QlikView\Management Service\QVManagementService.exe.config
  3. Locate the value:
     <!-- Possibility to make Reload Engines visible under Setup/System Distribution services  -->
        <add key="ShowReloadEngines" value="false"/>​
  4. Change it from "false" to "true" in the value= area
  5. Save the file in its original location
  6. Restart the QlikView Management Service service 
  7. In the QMC, navigate to System -> Setup -> Distribution Services
  8. Locate the "ReloadEngine@SERVERNAME" reference in the Reload Engines area and delete it.

 This should remove the Max Concurrent Reload configuration option from the QlikView Server settings. 

 

Cause:

'Reload Engines' are automatically added to an environment any time a new QlikView Server resource is added into the environment via the QlikView Management Console (QMC) -> System -> Setup -> QlikView Servers area.
