To answer your question, if the dealer must hit a soft 17 this means that if the dealer has an Ace, 6 hand they must take another card and can not stand on the 17.
It is important to note that Dealer's Hitting of the "Soft 17" is very advantageous to the house. Such games should be avoided where that is an option.

The surface that the dealer deals on is called a "green," and the casino rule about a soft 17 is ALWAYS listed right there on the green. "Dealer hits soft 17" means just that, that he must consider the total to be 7 and hit. "Dealer stays on soft 17" means that dealer must consider the total to be 17 and stay, which gives you a slight advantage.

A soft hand is any hand you can hit and get a 10 and still have the same thing; an Ace is ALWAYS involved.

What do Las Vegas blackjack dealers stand on?
They stand on the floor. But if you're talking about the card total... They stand on a hard 17 or higher and hit on 16 or lower. A "hard 17" is a 7 and any card worth 10.

What does a Blackjack dealer have to hit on?
The rule of thumb for hitting is: If the dealer is showing a 2 through 6, stand on a breaking hand, 12 or better. If the dealer is showing a 7 through Ace, hit on a 16 or less. If you have two aces - you should split your hand and hit on both. Deuces are called a dealers Ace because the dealer can usually make a hand with a 2 showing, a lot of players will hit a 12 or 13 against a deuce. No guarantees of course, they don't call it gambling for nothing.

When dealer must hit soft 17 is it restricted to the first 2 cards or can it be more than that Example 2 2 2 A is 17 If dealer got a similar hand would that require a hit?
A soft 17 is an Ace and any card or cards adding up to 6, i.e Ace + 4 + 2, Ace + 3 + 3, Ace + 6, Ace + 2 + 3 + Ace. Therefore, if the casino you are at requires the dealer to hit on a soft 17 then they hit on all soft 17's no matter the combination of cards.

In blackjack does the dealer get the cards in a tie?
I'm not sure what you mean about the dealer getting the cards. So, a quick lesson in Blackjack. When the dealer and the player both have hands that have the same value it is called a push, no win, no loss. There is no such thing as a tie-breaker. The dealer must stand on a 17 or better and hit on a 16 or under, no exceptions. As for the dealer getting the cards, the dealer gets all the cards, the dealer has control of the cards at all times.
