System redundancy limit has been exceeded

[gersonguerrero]

System redundancy limit has been exceeded restore your fileserver to continue or.... I have Aloha POS 5.3.17 and I had to put the terminals in redundancy cuz the BOH is damage so once I did extend the 21 days in redundancy and now I don't know what I did cuz I can't get them working again, I deleted the trans.log many times, reboot and nothing, this just happed tonight, the good thing is that we open again til wednesday so at least I have 2 days to solve this problem, I've fixed my Aloha system thanks to tek-tips, is my first time posting a thread so I hope I can get an answer, thanks in advance.

You will need to do a Fileserver Recovery in the Aloha Manager - under the Utilities menu. Do it a couple of times in a row.

Well thanks for the quick answer, I forgot to mention that when I tried to make a grind appeared an error TS Aloha Grind (Date...) but i got stock in there, of course if I click on Fileserver Recovery nothing happens, I'm here at the club trying everything to make it works by tomorrow!

Check out my FAQ - File Server Recovery Does Not Work at the top of the screen under FAQ. Follow all the steps.

Acctually I think you need to check out all 3 of my FAQ's-

1. XP server and terminal setup
2. Using Lanacfg
3. File server recovery.

The good thing is that when I copied the folders from the terminal to my BOH to make grind, the error I mentioned at the beginning didn't appeared (which is good right?) so I thought it grinded ok but when I tried the File server recovery nothing happened. I followed the steps of you FAQ File server recovery and I just check the DEBOUT.01 from the TMP folder in the terminal (server) that is in redundancy as follows:
