How to set up multiple servers?

Liss · 2008-03-24, 01:09

I tried to find the forum etc how to connect multiple servers together but no result... the pdf on wiki how to is not usefull. I have 2 servers with latest tv server up and running and i can connect clients to them with out problem one by one but how/where do they find each other so they can use same database like the tutorial videos?

I haven't done it my self, but I think in the server setup near the top you expand the server name to get to the installed TV tuner cards, around that area I think you can get an add button to add more servers.

Hi neighbour.
You need one pc to be the master, and that has the sql server.
When you login with the tv setup the first time, you change the name of the server
so change hostname from "slave"\sqlserver
to "master"\sqlserver
You can change this later, but I don't remember how... Maybe it is easier to un- and reinstall tvserver on the slave.

Unfortunately this functionality is not working at the moment...

It messed up my database and I am currently trying to repair it...
