Hi @Rohit Kulkarni ,

Thanks for getting back. Please refer to below demonstration videos which has a step by step implementation of how to share an existing SHIR with multiple data factories:

1. Create a shared self-hosted integration runtime in Azure Data Factory
2. Shared Self Hosted Integration runtime in Azure Data Factory

Hope this helps. Do let us know if you have further query.

Hi @Rohit Kulkarni ,

Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A forum and posting your query.

I believe your ask is regarding Self Hosted Integration runtime. If that is the case then It is not possible to have 2 SHIR's in single server.

There are 2 options:

1. Either create seperate (new) SHIR in a different server or
2. You can create a shared self-hosted integration runtime in Azure Data Factory. Then you can use the shared self-hosted integration runtime in another data factory. By reusing an existing self-hosted integration runtime infrastructure that you already set up in a data factory, it lets you create a linked self-hosted integration runtime in a different data factory by referencing an existing shared self-hosted IR.
   • Shared IR: An original self-hosted IR that runs on a physical infrastructure.
   • Linked IR: An IR that references another shared IR. The linked IR is a logical IR and uses the infrastructure of another shared self-hosted IR.

Please refer to this which has step by step implementation on how to create shared SHIR : Create a shared self-hosted integration runtime in Azure Data Factory

There are few limitations with shared SHIR. To know about the limitations please refer to this document: Known limitations of self-hosted IR sharing

Hey Rohit,
You need to use the feature of gateway sharing :
https://www.powerupcloud.com/azure-data-factory-self-hosted-integration-runtime-sharing/

The integration run time would be set up in a server based on 1 of the ADF key.
Then via that ADF, you would share it to another ADF
And the ADF with which it was shared, a new linked IR needs to be created thereby leading to 2 ADFs leveraging same server
