Hi. The server which hosts our SLP has become unstable through age. The tree is due to be decommissioned in about 12 months so all upgrades/spending are on hold :-(
So I see 2 alternatives. As we'd prefer not to visit every server in the tree to change the SLP.cfg file, either:-
Move the slp services onto an existing server in the SLP OU and give it 2 IP addresses - it's own & that of the failing server.
or
Bring a new server up in the SLP OU with the IP address of the failing box & install SLP on it.
Thoughts pls? Any issues/gotcha's I need to be aware of? Tree is generally healthy. Good WAN links and one of the guys keeps a close eye on obits, etc.
NW5.1 SP6 EDir 85.30
Thanks in advance
Ian
