Data Mirroring Data is mirrored, touch by touch instantly to any station on the network.
Data Mirroring The ‘mirror’ could be another dedicated back office PC, or it could even be one of the POS workstations
Failover In the event of a complete unrecoverable failure of the primary server, the ‘Alternate’ server can take over to provide all of the functionality of the primary server with no ‘gaps’ in the data. The failover process takes less than 45 seconds.
Recovery When the primary server has been repaired, RmNetMon has an integrated ‘Restore Wizard’ to automatically guide the process of converting back to normal operations. The wizard makes multiple copies of the data- one copy of the data that accumulated during the failover period, one copy of the data in it’s state at the time of failure, and then it synchronizes the Primary Server and updates it to be current with all sales, labor and any other transactions that took place during failover.
