4.3 Taking Over a Failed Host
You can designate a computer running Windows MultiPoint Server 2012 as a redundant host for another one. Once
the supported host fails, this redundant host will take over all its LAN stations.
NOTE
•
Only LAN stations (m320-based) can be taken over by the redundant host;
USB stations (m300 / m302-based) cannot.
•
You must install the drivers and utility of LAN stations for a redundant host.
For detailed instructions, please refer to section “3.2 Installing Drivers and the Utility”
•
Once the supported host recovers, it will automatically take over all LAN stations
assigned to it. Users will be disconnected from their sessions if any on the
redundant host.
To designate a redundant host for another one, please do the following:
1. Log in to the planned
redundant host
with an administrative account, launch MultiPoint Manager, and then
click
LAN Stations
tab.
NOTE
•
Ensure that the drivers and utility for LAN stations are installed on this redundant
host. Otherwise,
LAN Stations
tab won’t appear on MultiPoint Manager.
2. On
LAN Stations
tab, click
Failover by host
.
