Frequently Asked Questions
Can Supplier and Consumer be started on the same machine?
Yes, Supplier and Consumer can be started on the same machine. In fact, Supplier, Consumer and MarketMaker can all be started on the same machine.
If MarketMaker is started on a machine, Supplier and Consumer can only be started on the same machine if they are connected to the local MarketMaker.
Can I use a device that is reserved by another user?
No, you cannot use a device that is reserved by another user. You can only use a device that is reserved by you. Two users cannot reserve the same device at the same time.
If you are the Supplier of the device, you can use adb to connect to the device even if it is reserved by another user, but the device will not be available
on the default adb port. You can use the adborc supplier status command to get the port on which the device is internally available.
