About a hundred or so of our maps run on different Intermapper servers. We do this intentionally to get multiple vantage points.

It is pain to manually keep the maps on the master servers and on the shadow servers in synchronization. There are various ways to do this including export map and import map. All methods are tedious and error prone when you have hundreds of maps and multiple servers involved, and as a result map updates don't get propagated in a timely manner.

It would simply such setups if the shadow server could automatically synchronize maps from the master server. All details except the vantage point would be synchronized. On the shadow server Import would be extended to have 5 options:

   Import Map File...
   Import Data File...
   Import Probe...
   Import MIB...
   Import Map From Server...

Synchronization would be done server to server say every hour, without involvement of Intermapper Data Center. From the Intermapper Data Center perspective this would continue to be seen as different servers with different maps.
