Hi Alex, list, as Sean wrote, it's not possible to access the SSdb more than once at a time, even if being placed on some sort of shared filesystem. Each SpectroSERVER requires an exclusive database lock at startup. What you could do is running a hot standby Spectrum installation, where both, primary and secondary SpectroSERVER will poll. However, this will just double network traffic and may reduce the time for the secondary to become active in a failover situation. If you're running two separate servers, most of the things will be sparate (double), too: modeling, alarming, asset repoting, ...

Also if you are using the built in trap forwarder it may have issues with the duplicates. As far as having a single database, if you are talking about the spectroserver sleepycat database I don't believe it is possible to have them share a single database either in 8.1 or 9.1. Both spectroservers should have backups to provide higher availability monitoring. You could also use correlations to do this but I don't believe they are cross-landscape but I haven't played too much with correlations.

We need to be able to monitor our assets from 2 different Spectrum servers live at the same time. Is this feasible? If yes, is it tied to Spectrum 9.1? Thanks in advance for your replies.
