Introduction
Note
The procedure described in this section applies to the following servers:
● OS server
● Maintenance server
● External archive server
The description for the OS server is used here.
The OS servers of an OS server pair must be made known to each other. You do this by making
the following settings for the SIMATIC PC stations:
● For both OS servers: "Destination OS Computer"
● On the "master OS": OS name of the redundant OS server "Standby OS"
The destination OS computer is the Windows name of the PC in the Windows network to which
the server data (configuration data) for an OS server of an OS server pair was downloaded.
Master OS and standby OS mean the OS servers that make up an OS server pair.
