RSC/MP Installation and Configuration Guide

Configuring the RSC/MP Transport (Piccolo) Pipeman Section ([PIPEMAN])
IpcKey Option
The IpcKey option defines a unique Interprocess Communications (IPC) path that will
be used to communicate with the Pipeman process. Only use this option if you intend
to run multiple, concurrent instances of Piccolo. Refer to Configuring Multiple
Instances of Piccolo (for advanced installations) on page 5-5 for additional details.
When installing RSC/MP as a service on Windows, including the IpcKey option in the
Piccolo configuration file with a name other than the default piccolo, will result in
errors during the installation process.
