To configure a Standby BIM:

  1. Install the service for the Standby BIM as outlined in “Configure Active BIM” on page 27.

  2. Start the service in “Start the services for SAM, Adapter Platform, and BIM” on page 27.

    At this point, additional manual configuration is no longer required.

    • Later, after you modify the failover.conf file and run the sm_configureFailover.pl script, the script automatically creates all necessary subscriptions to the counterparts.

    • Later, when you run the manual backup, the Failover Manager adds the underlying source Domain Managers from the Active location to the Standby location.
