Kevin, perhaps configuring your OS with hot failover scripts would work well for you. Most *nix flavors can be pretty readily configured to monitor each other and take over answering for a 'shared primary' IP.

It is that time of year again that someone asks the question about disaster recovery and Intermapper.

I constantly backup the Intermapper Settings folder but "they" want a more involved solution.

We have a backup Intermapper that I update constantly but it is turned off waiting for the main to crash.

So, "they" have just figured out that none of this is automatic.

My question of the day is how to re-direct connections to Intermapper at x.y.100.50 to x.y.101.50

That would be any and all requests (not just http) that arrives to the crashed server should be sent to the new server but without the users having to do anything.....

I've seen hardware and software things to do this.

Any suggestion on something simple?

Kevin
