Hi All,
Is there a way to start multiple RTC session and then access the sessions concurrently?

You can open as many RTC sessions as you want (either as the same user
or as different users). Perhaps you could clarify what you are looking for?

Hi Geoff,
I want to start one session to perform some actions on a specific stream/project (ex. load) and another session to perform some on a different specific stream/project) in parallel. Any idea? thanks.

The exact details vary somewhat based on what RTC client you are using
(Eclipse, Visual Studio, Web, Command Line), so let's talk about the
Eclipse client, so we can be specific.

In the Eclipse client, you usually don't need to explicitly start
separate "sessions", because the Eclipse client will run multiple
threads for you in parallel, and update the Eclipse GUI as those thread
progress.

Sometimes it will just do this automatically, and sometimes it will pop
up a progress pane, with a "run in the background" option you can click.
There are a few cases where you are blocked until a dependent
operation completes, but the RTC plugin designers try to avoid that
behavior when possible.

For your particular example, performing operations on two different
streams, most of those operations will run in parallel with each other.
And if you really want to guarantee that you can run two operations in
parallel, you can fire up two Eclipse instances, and run one operation
from each of them.

Geoff

Hi Geoff,
I was referring to the command line as I would like to automate the build process and have the script(s) work on the different streams in parallel (ex. loading both streams).

I'll have to defer to the command line experts for this one.
An obvious approach would be to use your shell language job control to
fire off various requests in parallel. But we'd need to find out from
the command line experts how that would interact with the command-line
daemon that those requests would talk to (i.e. would that by default
sequentialize the requests, and if so, how to force them to run in
parallel).

Cheers,
Geoff
