Description

In a node cluster, iProcess Engine machines communicate by publishing and subscribing to events using iProcess Engine event mechanism. This means that all machines in a node cluster must have permission to instantiate events. To allow this, you must configure the Windows Distributed Component Module (DCOM) facility to allow ANONYMOUS LOGON permissions on each machine.
