Parallel server

Parallel servers serve to increase the performance and availability of server systems. To do this, two versiondog servers are networked.

Requirements:

Advantages of parallel servers:

If one of the two servers is not reachable for a preconfigured period of time, a warning is shown in the Windows-Eventlog, in the versiondog event log and, if configured, per e-mail. This warning is regenerated every 24 hours as long as the server is not available. As soon as the server has been restarted, the configured time period applies again. When the server becomes available again, the parallel server operation will be resumed.

 

Before you undertake large changes in your network, we strongly recommend that you end the services of both parallel servers. This is the only way to ensure that no open tasks (for example, Check-In or other changes) accumulate on either of the servers.
