Hello Gerald.

I have done that before, you only need to set up different databases on postgresql (Naming them differently) then creating dhis2 instances with the same names you used in the database., this is done by renaming the war file before exploding in tomcat. Set the database connection in the .conf Files then environmental variables. You should be good to go.

Seth,

Thanks very much for your help. So it is on the ngnix that we define the path of each instances?

Hi Gerald

What Seth describes is pretty much what dhis2-tools does. It just
partially automates some of the setup and takes care of some fiddly
things like serving static files through cache, rotating backups etc.
And you have dhis2-tools running on sl.dhis2.org.

Simon Jespersen has been working on the latest version packaged as a
ppa. You can get it from
https://launchpad.net/~simjes91/+archive/ubuntu/dhis2-tools\.

One small detail, the instance create script is still making a
hibernate.properties file. You can easily copy the detail of that
into a dhis.conf file.

And yes you need to configure nginx to route requests to the different
instances.
