Dedicate device

[luprochazka-cen63872]

Hi,

I am trying to dedicate devices. I have one MacMini and a lot of devices. My idea is to run two instances Appium with device-farm specified by two different ports and dedicated pool of devices for every "node". I tried config like this:

{ "server": { "port": 4723, "base-path": "/wd/hub/", "allow-insecure": ["chromedriver_autodownload"], "default-capabilities": { "appium:showXcodeLog": true, "appium:udids": "00008030-xxx" }, "use-plugins": [ "appium-dashboard", "device-farm" ], "plugin": { "device-farm": { "platform": "both" }, "appium-dashboard": { "enableLiveVideo": "false" } } } }
But still other devices are accessible and I see them in GUI.

@luprochazka-cen63872 yes every plugin instance will pick all the devices in that machine.

Why are you running two instance of appium server with plugin on the same machine?

I want to dedicate devices for groups of testers.
