Installing vb on a second server that uses the same database
 

Right now I have vb installed on server 1. Does anyone know if it is possible to install a second board on server 2 (with a different domain name) that shares the same database as server 1?

Do you owned a 2nd license?

Do I need to? It'll work on the same database. I will get a 2nd license if I need to and if I know the answer to my original question is positive.

1 license per domain. Since you have 2 domains, you're required to have 2 license. I believe you can use the same mysql, but a lot of work has to be done. Such as pin pointing.

There is no real work needed to run 2 boards off 1 database. All you have to do is make sure both config files point to the same system, and that your mysql is configured to accept connections on 3306. You can even use different logins, if you want.

The main issue will be how close the two servers are, it might be worth turning on pconnect for the remote server if the mysql connection overhead is big.

*why* you would want to do this though, that I do not understand.

Thanks very much for your help.

Make sure you use the prefix... such as "vb_".
