In order to set up server-to-server connectivity, you must configure both the primary XDB Server and the remote XDB Server. The primary XDB Server is the XDB Server which clients will log into. From this server, they will be able to access remote XDB locations by using either three-part names or aliases. The instructions in this topic discuss one primary server with one remote server.
If you wish to have a fully distributed environment, complete the Primary Server Configuration instructions for each XDB Server that you wish to be a primary XDB Server. Complete the Remote Server Configuration instructions for each XDB Server you wish to be a remote XDB Server.
The following instructions assume that security is turned on (through the XDB Server Configuration utility) for the primary XDB Server.
