Enabling Replication

To enable TapeTrack High Availability Replication:

  1. Install the TapeTrack Framework Server software on your remote machine.
  2. Stop the service on the remote machine.
  3. Delete all database files on the remote machine (all files in the var/db directory except the DB_CONFIG file).
  4. Edit the DB_CONFIG file and remove the comments to make the machine a Replicant.
  5. Edit the replication local and remote host names in the DB_CONFIG file.
  6. Ensure that the replication TCP/IP ports specified in the DB_CONFIG file are open for inbound connections.
  7. Start the TapeTrack service on the remote machine.
  8. Stop the TapeTrack service on the primary TapeTrack server.
  9. Edit the DB_CONFIG file to define the local and remote server.
  10. Ensure that the replication TCP/IP ports are open for inbound connections.
  11. Start the primary TapeTrack server.
  12. Look in the $DB_Msg.txt file on both the primary and replicant server to ensure that replication is functional.
