    Move Macola Progression to twin of existing server

    I have macola progression 7.7.400 running on a 2003 std server with sql 2000 enterprise sp4. I'm not an expert on this product so I'm trying to keep this as simple as possible. I built another 2003 std server, sql 2000 ent sp4. Installed macola 7.7, launched the client and then installed the...

    Split SQL Database across 2 Instances??

    Ok thanks alot, I found a doc on exacts site that seems to explain how to re-add existing companies to a new install of Macola. So my only other question was about handling two side-by-side macola installtions. Since each instance will include it's own PWE, SCREENS etc... db's. Can I install to...

    Split SQL Database across 2 Instances??

    Essentially we'll have to buy a second copy of everything with a slight discount (how generous lol). Not cheap but it's not my money. I understand your view, but thanks for the help thus far. I really appreciate it.

    Split SQL Database across 2 Instances??

    I spoke to them about a month ago this is still in the planning and quoting process. But I used their consultingonce before and it cuts deep into my profits. So I'm just trying to figure it out myself.

    Split SQL Database across 2 Instances??

    Each Macola server will be basically isolated. The user on Server 1 needs no access to Server 2 via Macola. Think of it has a completely seperate business.

    Split SQL Database across 2 Instances??

    Not best practice but they have one physical terminal server, it contains sql and the application. Nobody has the client on their physical computer. They want to trash this machine and split it up onto two servers of the same configuration, SQL/Macola Client/Terminal Services. Each will...

    Split SQL Database across 2 Instances??

    Sorry to bother you with this. That makes things a little more challenging. **The question is on the bottom. Most of this post is just background I thought would help. They have a US and a mexico location, right now on a single server. So my plan so far was to just... 1) Duplicate the current...

    Split SQL Database across 2 Instances??

    Great thanks :-) Just to verify one other thing (I manage the server, know very little about Macola) The logon information is stored within each individual database isn't it?

    Split SQL Database across 2 Instances??

    Okay right now I have a Macola installed on my SQL Server with Terminal Services. Users run the app via Terminal Services. Macola has probably 9 or 10 companies setup, I don't have the exact number off hand. So the new setup is as follows I think this part should be fairly simple? Server 1...

    Sufficient Upload for TS?

    I would generally agree I've managed much larger environments. But I'm consulting for a smaller business. The head office is 4 people. Maybe 5 in China, and all they do is access TS to access 1 app So I can't justify a wall full of servers to be primarily used by 4 people. Besides if you...

    Does the problem occur regardless of which DC you bring down?

    Sufficient Upload for TS?

    I have a server in the head office running SQL and servicing 6 users right now. This company may be opening a new location. 20 users, 20 computers; simultaneously running Outlook cached mode and Terminal services to the above server. Th best connection available short of a T1 at the new...
