Its so you can have multiple boxes talking to the same db and they won't clobber each others data. But in recover you have to pair them so that the secondary box can recover for the records of the primary. /b On Jan 16, 2011, at 4:55 PM, Steven Ayre wrote:
Well, partly that hostname variable predates all the sofia recover stuff so there was no reason for it originally.

And even when I modified the sql table to change the hostname in the DB and then do a sofia recover, it didn't recover. I'm not sure how to debug this, I'm just getting "no calls to recover" and I don't hear anything.
