Making 1DB into 2 servers

[NewWorldGaming]

I've been told theres a way to turn 1 DB into 2 servers.
Wondering if this is true what exactly would i have to change to make this possible, for a high rate mid and low rate server?

You can do it but you need 2 diffrent computers with 2 diffrent ips... or get a VPS and thin you can host 2 servers on one computer...

[King_Arthur]

Well the two servers would run off the same account database, but not the same my database, so it's still 2 DBs just sharing the same account information. To actually do the process, you just edit the configs for both servers, whether two physical computers or virtual as Jerry[PM] was saying. Everything else is basically the same.

EDIT: To clarify, I wasn't saying that was impossible to use one database, you could. The problem is that the second server running the binaries would have to go over the net (whether internal or external) to get to the database information which could potentially cause server lag. Running two sets of servers is also theoretically possible but not efficient nor easy. Lastly, I suggest using one account server for both as opposed to two different ones for each server.

thats is not imposible to host 2 server from i ip..anyway you need to have two database and 2 server files..example

Question for CroW_ZeRo..

Account already read my in db
and second db is my2 in your picture..

Question Is
whether Account will read my2 second time??

[CroW_ZeRo]

ok this is some explaination..i correct something in my post..
ACCSERVER
open account.ini and add this line..

[Account2]
SERVERNAME=SERVERNAME
LOGINNAME=test
PASSWORD=test
FREE_DEBUG=3

for your question matrix89..copy your GameServer folder to everywhere u want..then open all the config files..this is example where you will need to change in the all config files.

config.ini

; 配置文件


[System]
SERVERNAME	= SERVERNAME
MONSTER_ACTIVE_LIMIT = 40000


[GameServer]
GAMESERVER_IP	= 127.0.0.1
GAMESERVER_PORT	=5816
SND_SIZE		= 64000
RCV_SIZE		= 16000


[Database]
DB_IP			=127.0.0.1
DB_USER			=******
DB_PW			=*******
DB_NAME			=[COLOR="Red"]my2[/COLOR]


[InternetPort]
MASTER_IP	= 127.0.0.1
MASTER_PORT	= 8653
PORT_SIZE	= 53
LOGIN_KEY	= dfkKO23k'[cvK934
CURRENT_PORTID	= 2


[BusySleep]
LEVEL1		= 20	; > 1000 sleep 20%
LEVEL2		= 30	; > 2000
LEVEL3		= 40	; > 3000
LEVEL4		= 50	; > 4000
LEVEL5		= 60	; > 5000

So you will have 1 ACCSERVER RUNNING..2 MSGSERVER and 2 NPCSERVER..

owh..
now im understand...
i will try it..
thanx for you explaination...

[CroW_ZeRo]

opss..miss something..you need to change the server name too..hehe

[NewWorldGaming]

yea but if i change server name it wont connect to account server will it?

idk if i am just misunderstanding or what but look this wat i mean.

I am running my server on my dedi ok? so only 1 IP

how can i make 2 diffrent realms without them conflicting with eachother?

It will because you will have added the second server to your account configs.

If you are already paying for a dedicated server getting another IP shouldn't cost that much more..

[HauntedEudemon]

not work

or do i need change port ?

it not support if open 2 acc server

[idlemonkey]

if you use an external firewall running 2 servers on that 1 ip can be done entirely with port forwarding to have it run your database server on one local ip[s] and your game[s] on a seperate local ip[s] .... leaving you with 1 external and 2 or 3 internal ips(you dont want to use external ips for the reason king arther mentioned earlier) .... to setup your network with more than one server you need to use either a new configuration for your accserver or make it with a different port ie accserver 1 connects to port 9958 and accserver 2 connects to port 9999(you will have to do the same with 1 of the gamserver ips.)


you can do all the port configurations in your firewall (and point them to the normal port configurations on their respective servers)so that you wont have to change your configurations inside the server but you will have to change the accserver port in the client for either server 1 or server 2


if you are using a dedicated server and hosting your 1 system on the bare metal server youre wasting 75% of your server
youre better off using 2 completely seperate systems inside ur dedi with seperate ips than trying to get it to work on 1 ip(though it "can" be done)

[HauntedEudemon]

yup , must edit port to make it work . also need edit in client . haha . if use dedi with high spec . better install vm @ virtual and split into 2 . haha
