Adding a Second Server
A single-server Polycom DMA system can be upgraded to a fault-tolerant
two-server cluster at any time. For an overview of how a two-server cluster
works and its advantages, see “Two-server Cluster Configuration” on page 3.
To form a two-server cluster, both servers must be running the same version
of the Polycom DMA system software. Depending on the software level of
your existing server, you can accomplish this in one of two ways:
• If your existing server is running an unpatched release version of the
system software for which you have the installation DVD, follow the
procedure in “Expanding an Unpatched System” on page 378.
• If your existing server is running a patched version of the system software
different from that on the installation DVD, follow the procedure in
“Expanding a Patched System” on page 379.
Both procedures assume that you’ve ordered and received the server
expansion package, which includes the second server, its accessories, and a
new License Certificate.
