I was not aware of the behaviour, sorry. Yes it's fine for me. Do you think it's feasible to adapt the test so that it checks for such a topology? |

Ideally I would like to have a test for multinode QC setups, but this is far from trivial to do. Maybe I could at least run parts of the big workflow one after another... In |

@knopers8 Yes, it works with my multi-node setup as well. Thanks. |

@ktf #4426 broke multi-node setups in QC (which are used by ITS for commissioning now). We use different channels for different kinds of data, because sometimes we have to bind on the "pull" side, sometimes on the "push" side. Now the proxy throws if we use other channel name than "downstream". It is also not straightforward to adapt to that change, because on the receiver side
specifyExternalFairMQDeviceProxyforces us to use the same name for the device name and channel name, so essentially we can have only one input proxy with one channel.As a result, the whole FLP, EPN <-> QC servers communication would have one channel to use, so any QC server would receive all the data requested by all QC servers. Could we have something like this instead, so both the old and new behaviours work?
@JianLIUhep Could you please confirm this solves your issue? It works again on my setup.
