you cannot ‘merge’ servers (meaning keeping one replicated in two locations or run two on the same physical machine). On each box, each runs independently. As long as their names and internal identification numbers (UUID) are different, both will be listed under your account.hey chuck, thanks for the quick response, That is exactly what im failing to do, i cant get my second server listed under my account
To get the second machine into your account (at the moment) takes a little trick (we think there’s a bug in the Web/ui we’re trying to identify).
We’re going to do simultaneous sessions (one in each tab)
- Open a second tab to your existing (machine #1) and in that tab, sign your existing Plex/web out of your account
- Now open the IP of the new machine using the same SSH-tunnel you did for the other remote machine (aka… by IP address)
- Go through the standard first-run wizard on
http://127.0.0.1:8888/web(tunnel address from your machne) to it. (registers it to you) - When you sign it in through the tunnel, and arrive at the dashboard when done, you’ll see both machines on your account in that tab.
- Switch to machine #1 tab and sign into your Plex.tv account
- Verify the new machine is also listed.
- When both are listed, you can close “Tab 2” (machine 2) and the ssh tunnel… you can now administer it from local because it’s registered to your account.
