Installing an Add-On Secondary VCX Connect Server 35
On the primary VCX Connect server:
1 Log in to the cworks account and enter this command:
cd /opt/3com/VCX/vcxdata/bin
./setupReplication
2 When prompted for the site ID, enter the site description that you
configured on both the primary and secondary VCX Connect servers.
3 When prompted for the number of master sites, enter 1.
4 When prompted for the IP address of the Master Definition site, enter the
IP address of the primary VCX Connect server.
5 When prompted for the IP address of the Master site, enter the IP address
of the secondary VCX Connect server.
Allow approximately 30 minutes for the database replication between the
primay and secondary servers to be completed. This time may be longer,
depending on how much data is in the database.
6 To verify that the replication process has been completed, remain logged
in to the cworks account, stay in the /opt/3com/VCX/vcxdata/bin directory
and enter this command:
./checkReplication
The output from this command varies depending on how close the
replication process is to being completed. When you see a message
indicating that the status is NORMAL, the replication process has been
completed.
Configuring Mirroring for IP Messaging
When you add a secondary VCX Connect server after the primary server
has been in operation for some time, you must:
Back up the IP Messaging data on the primary server
Copy the backed up data to the secondary server
Restart the primary server and then the secondary server
Backing Up IP Messaging Data
Before you back up the IP Messaging data, the primary server must be in
an idle state (no call or messaging traffic). This means that the backup
process must be done during non-business hours.
CAUTION: Do not shut down the IP Messaging service. The service must
be running or you cannot back up the IP Messaging data.
