Redundancy

The Redundancy tab allows you to set up a backup computer in case the
computer hosting the RCM/KE Manager goes offline. If the RCM/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 RCM/KE Manager operations.
Note: A CCKM supports up to 5 secondary servers.
To set up Redundancy, do the following:
1. Install RCM/KE Manager on a secondary computer with a USB license
key. For detailed instructions, see page 88.
Note: A second USB license key is required if you have more than 8 KE
Series devices in your setup.
2. On the secondary computer, log in to the RCM/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.
