Single point of faillure

Postby KL-666 » Thu Oct 09, 2014 1:06 pm

Every time mpserver01 is down (like now), all other mpservers can only see their own connections. So i suspect all mpservers use mpserver01 as some sort of hub to get connections from other mpservers.

Is it not possible to have all mpservers communicate with each other? Or if not, have a fallback hub server, so all mpservers can change to that server if the first hub is down.

Kind regards, Vincent

Mpserver01 is basically down for a week now. With the upcoming flightsim weekend and maybe no chance of implementing failover hub services, the administrators of the mpservers might want to choose another more stable server as primary hub?

Kind regards, Vincent

mpserver01 was the most reliable hub until the current down time. AFAIK FGMS (the program itself) supports multiple hubs but the said function not fully tested yet so it was never activated. I would like to ask for any of your help to enhance the FGMS.
