View status messages
1. On the failover recording server, right-click the Milestone Failover Server service icon.
2. Select Show Status Messages. The Failover Server Status Messages window appears,
listing time-stamped status messages.
Change the management server address
The failover recording server must be able to communicate with your system's management server.
You specify the IP address/hostname of the management server during the installation of the failover
recording server. If you want to change the address of the management server, do as follows:
1. On the failover recording server, stop the Failover Recording Server service.
2. Right-click the notification area's Failover Recording Server service icon again.
3. Select Change Settings. The Failover Recording Server Settings window appears, so you
can specify the IP address or host name of the management server with which the failover
recording server should communicate.
View version information
Knowing the exact version of your Failover Recording Server service is an advantage if you need to
contact product support.
1. On the failover recording server, right-click the Milestone Failover Recording Server
service icon.
2. Select About.
3. A small dialog box opens that shows the exact version of your Failover Recording Server
service.
Failover management servers
About multiple management servers (clustering)
The management server can be installed on multiple servers within a cluster of servers. This ensures
that the system has very little down-time. If a server in the cluster fails, another server in the cluster
automatically takes over the failed server's job running the management server. The automatic
process of switching over the server service to run on another server in the cluster only takes a very
short time (up to 30 seconds).
It is only possible to have one active management server per surveillance setup, but other
management servers may be set up to take over in case of failure.
