Anyone have any documentation on creating a Fail Over Server. What i want to do is create a duplicate server and have the two server in sync all the time so that if our production server crashes the backup server will take over and no one will notice a change. Then i can fix the production server and sync it up. It will be like a mirrored server.

thanks

Daniel,

I am not sure of the BaaN Windows installation and its different on Unix installations. I guess you can use the option Load Balancing Systems.

Refer to -

need help regarding O/s doubt ( Win NT 4.0 specific) (http://www.baanboard.com/baanboard/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10031&highlight=disaster)

Also search on the forum with the keywords - disaster recovery, DR, replication systems etc you might find more info.

This can be achieved thru Baan Mirror Methodology. One server acts as a primary server and other one act as standby server.

Both servers have Baan installed on them. Primary server is configured in such a way to open up the two database driver to communicate with database installed on both servers. This can be acheived by having entry for two database drivers in tabledef6.1 file.

sample entries are ..

*:100:oracle8&oracle8(ORACLE_HOME = ....., ORACLE_CLIENT_HOME-....., LOCAL = SERVERB, ORACLE_SERVICE_NAME= SERVERB, TWO_TASK= SERVERB):Y
