This Bug Report affects these Traffic Control components:

  • Traffic Monitor
  • Traffic Ops
  • Traffic Router

What did you do?

I had 3 tm.url defined as paramters as I was preparing a Traffic Ops migration. The target one was mapped to the GLOBAL profile. Although looks like the first one encountered in the DB is used as I couldn't see my change in the CR-Config.

I've been scratching my head quite a bit on that. After I deleted all the other tm.url in the DB, my CR-Config finally get assigned to the proper Traffic Ops.

I couldn't find any documentation on what ${toHostname} is actually mapped to. It seems like this is tied to the tm.url (twelve monkey). Which is tm_host in the cr-config stats section and probably renamed from ${tmHostname}.

I could finally get my Traffic Router to move from different Traffic Ops. I also believe TR restart are required for this.
