Install a new relay / loader
If you already have a working webNetwork system and need to add an additional Relay or Server (loader) then the following information can be used.
First, if you did not do your initial install or have never installed webNetwork and do not feel comfortable doing this, please contact your sales representative to set up some consulting time.
If you are comfortable with installing webNetwork and can take down your existing relay / server so you can copy the files from the old server to the new server.
***********************************************
* Common steps for both a new relay or loader *
***********************************************
* If using Linux, substitute c:\stoneware with /usr/stoneware and ignore the webNetwork Service utility and use the /usr/stoneware/util/linux scripts to control startup.
1) Configure additional server with the same os as existing relay / server.
2) Shut down webNetwork on existing relay.
3) Copy the stoneware folder (typically c:\stoneware) from old server to the new server.
