=======================
Yes, you can do that. But by design, the EMS plug-in will always connect to the first server in the URL no matter it’s active or standby. So, if your purpose is to monitor the active server only, this can only work if the first server in the URL is in active mode when you start the Hawk. TIBCO recommend you configure separate Hawk EMS plug-in for each EMS server in FT pair. In this way, you can check the state of the EMS server first and then decide if you need to check the status.
