Same database server with different SA

Hi Guys,

 

We are trying to connect one DB server with mutiple service accounts 

DB Server: XYZ

DB Name:Xyz

DB Windows Account: team.read

 

DB Server: XYZ

DB Name:Xyz

DB Windows Account: client1.read

 

Got below error:DMTS_DuplicateDatasourceError

 

And moreover it does not allow mutiple gateways on single server; dont expect us to create gateway in 10 server for 10 clients.

 

Any thoughts!

 

Regards,

Navin
