23.12 Expanding an existing standard SwyxWare installation to a Standby Scenario
An existing SwyxWare installation (Version 6.0 and higher) can be expanded with the SwyxStandby option pack. Required for this are:
*the Configuration Wizard
*the configuration tools of the operating system
*administrator rights on both server computers
*a Windows domain account under which the SwyxServer services run
*License keys for the current SwyxWare version (e.g. an update key)
*License keys for the SwyxStandby option pack
or find out in the Knowledgebase under
* 
The standby scenario does not support separated databases. Please note that it is essential for the database to be on the same computer as the assigned SwyxServer. Otherwise the file replication cannot match the database.
* 
If the existing SwyxServer is to become the standby SwyxServer, please back up the database before reconfiguring. After the installation of the standby scenario, you can import this back into the master system. See Backing up the SwyxWare Database.
