Adding a satellite

You can add databases to a Master and Satellite DCM cluster by creating new satellites. For example, you could add a new database in Irvine, California with a CA ID. To add this satellite to the existing DCM cluster, use the same procedure as the one used to set up the destination database definition for the master and the first satellite.

Procedure

  1. Initialize the Irvine database to CA.
  2. Create the master destination database definition for CA.
    • In the MA Create DCM database Definition dialog box, add the destination database ID (CA), its description, and its properties.
  3. Perform the initial transfer to the CA satellite.
    • Use the same transfer set that was used for the IL database, and generate the transfer package for the new destination.
