SQL named instances and named pipes

$

Good Morning Thwack-Folks!

 

I do have a question concerning the usage of named instances and named pipes.

So here is the scenario:

 

Usually you have a SQL server, so you simple use default port for your Orion components and leave the SQL instance empty. Nothing to worry, easy going.

If you do have several instances, all components for your initial instance, work as stated above. All other instances - in case you are using the SQL Browser - will need the instance name to let the Orion component properly with default port.

So to make a long story short, we have 4 instances and everything works fine, except the newest one because it used named pipes (due Software requirements). Now the the instance name will return errors (same errors like you enter the wrong instance name) also the default port won't answer for this instance.

So my question is, is there a special parameter for the instance field, if named pipes are in use? I did try \\<computer_name>\pipe\MSSQL$<instance_name>\sql\query but unfortunately with the same result.

 

Short example of several instances:

Initial instance (AAA)

Instance name: empty

Default port

 

Initial instance (BBB)

Instance name: BBB

Default port

 

Initial instance (CCC)

Instance name: CCC

Default port

 

and so on

 

Thank you in advance for help!
