We have two NEC SV8100 servers connected with netlink. One of these is the primary and one is the secondary. Each has about 30 digital handsets, and the primary location is the SIP server for about 20 IP phones.
When the network has a hiccup between two locations, the secondary phone server goes into survival mode and ALL phones reboot at that location. The problem is we have our secondary server in a 24x7 mission critical facility, while the primary is in a more relaxed facility. So we would like to swap them.
One NEC programmer I talked to said this should be fairly easy, but he wasn't sure how it was done. The installer who put the system in (and never mentioned the fact that the secondary location would go completely down everytime the network lost connectivity) said it would take quite a while -- 30 hours of programming.
Has anyone out there had experience with this? Are there copy/paste or command line tools to help with this type of programming? Any estimates on time it takes?
Thanks for any guidance you can give...
