In the event a network outage or hardware failure prevents a server from recording camera video, the IP Server Failover Server option will enable another server to take over the recording capabilities of the offline server.

When configured with a shared SQL Database as part of a cluster, the Failover Server minimizes video loss and enables continuous live streaming video.

To use the Failover Server feature, the following criteria are required:

  • Complete setup of two identical servers with the same hardware configuration.

  • A shared Database installation; see IP Server Installation for more details.

  • A license and a serial number or activation key for each server.
