second unity server as failover

[mikram]

Hi

We have single unity server and would like to have second unity server as failover. Is there special things need to be done on first server to make primary and introduce second server as failover. I have got the failover license file.

Thanks in advance,

You will install primary server with the license files you received from Cisco. Then you will install the second server with the demo license that comes with Unity server. Once both servers are independently installed as standalone Unity servers you would go to the primary server first and in Commserver folder there is a utility called FailoverConfig.exe. You would run this on primary server and then on secondary server and after this both servers should be part of the same failover pair.

what version of Unity, you should read the failover configuration guide first.
