@BrianCuttler I am assuming that with “same platform”, you mean two different cryosparc instances on the same server.
If you really, really want this (and we are interested in understanding your use case for using the older version of cryoSPARC), there are some prerequisites:
- no overlaps between the instances’ respective project directories
- no overlaps between the ranges of network ports (see here and the
--portparameter here) - dedicated databases for each instance (this happens by default when you install cryoSPARC)
- separate licenses for the instances
As always, we’d recommend backing up the instances’ respective databases. You should begin with backups of your existing cryosparc database(s) before the installation of additional instances.
