Redundancy
The
Redundancy
tab allows you to setup a backup computer in case the
computer hosting the KE Manager goes offline. If the KE Manager goes
offline, the secondary computer will automatically take over operations,
allowing all connections to continue without disruption – with only a brief
period of 30 seconds when new connections can't be started. When the primary
computer comes back online it retrieves the updated database from the
secondary computer and re-takes all KE Manager operations.
To setup Redundancy, do the following:
1. Install the KE Manager on a secondary computer with the USB license key
(see page 133).
Note: Steps 2-6 can be skipped as long as the username and password are
entered correctly in step 11. The Primary computer will automatically set the
Secondary as long as the authentication information is entered correctly.
2. On the secondary computer, login to the KE Manager, click and go to
the
Redundancy
tab.
3. Check Enable Redundancy and select the Secondary radio button.
4. Use the Primary Server IP drop-down menu to select the primary IP
address.
5. Click Save .
