Dissolving parallel servers

To dissolve the parallel server set, i.e. to generate two single servers, proceed as follows:

Info

For your security, we recommend that you create backups of the two server archives in advance.

  1. Check in the AdminClient, in the System dashboard module, whether all elements have been synchronized or are the same. If synchronization ToDos are open, wait until they have been processed.
  2. In the AdminClient, in the Jobs module, check whether there are jobs for which the other server in the parallel server set is configured under Executed by and change the setting.
  3. Carry out the three steps on both servers:
    1. Stop the VDog MasterService on both servers.
    2. Delete the [ServerSynchronization] section from the file ...\vdServerArchive\VD$A\Configuration\server.ini.
    3. Delete the ...\vdServerArchive\VD$X\Configuration\65538 directory.

To switch the display mode in the System dashboard module of the AdminClient proceed as follows:

  1. Open the ...\vdServerArchive\VD$A\Configuration\server.ini file.
  2. In the [Common] section change the value of the entry 5543=N into 5543=Y.

If you want to uninstall both servers in the parallel server set, stop the VDog MasterService on both servers and uninstall them one after the other.
