Multiple masters that share one Enterprise Media Manager host

Multiple master servers can share one EMM database that is located on a single host. The host that contains the EMM database can be either a master server or a media server.

The Servers host properties must be set up to allow multiple master servers to access the EMM host.

In the following example, three master servers share one EMM database that is located on one of the servers (meadow).

Table: Server entries example describes the bp.conf server entries on each master server in the example:
