Two Servers, One Forum

Edit:

I setup a remote mysql connection so that works alright... the slave option in Vbulletin whats its main purpose ?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

The Slave option is used when you have 2 MySQL servers, where the second is a replica of the first. You can now spread the load between the servers: (modt) Read Operations->Slave, Write Operations->Master

Does the info on slave need to be the same as the master? I was lookin for some info on how to set this up but I didnt find anything

[Zachery]

Yes, the database name needs to be the same, and the servers need to actually be configured for replication.

[deatheyes]

how to synchronous them ?

[Zachery]

Its something tyou setup between two mysql servers. Do you have root level access to two mysql servers?

[Replicators]

Is it planned to be able to do this with 2 server's with different db names? Cause on my webhost we have 5 mysql slots, but can only have one name for one db. And i like the load balancing idea!

[Zachery]

No, this is only a dedicatd solution, there is also not much we can control. Most of this is done on the mysql side of things.
