How do I configure Data gateway connection on another device

Hi Power BI Community,

 

I have Successfully installed and created the connection with database on Power BI Service.

 

My Database is MySQL so i have to install Data gateway to make the report live.

 

Now, I want to install Data gateway on two other devices can I just install and connect the database to it or is there any other like i have to connect to the cluster i have installed on my first device.

 

All the three devices are mine and same Power BI account.

 

Please give a solution.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Ibrahim.

You want to add cluster members to your gateway cluster?  All of the VMs need to have the same configuration (same MySQL driver, for starters), and you need to validate that you can reach the data source from each of them (via tnc on port 3306, for example).

 

When you install the Enterprise gateway and run the management app you are given a choice to join the VM to an existing gateway cluster.  You MUST have the recovery key to do that.
