What happens if the server or workstation on which the TEM service is running fails?
TEM’s flexible architecture allows for planning of contingency recovery and fault tolerance levels according to business needs. Localized performance improvements can also be achieved through these methods: The TEM services can be installed on multiple NT/2000 computers in the domain and be active for distributed local caching performance and fault tolerance purposes. While only one TEM ROBOT needs to be active at a time, the secondary services can be running and available if the main TEM server fails. As long as any PDC is functioning in a managed domain, TEM can function. The TEM Client would need to include simple .INI file entries to indicate the available TEM servers that could be used in the event of an outage or performance hit of any TEM server. The TEM ROBOT can also be pointed at a still-active TEMCFG shared directory or an alternate shared directory as long as recently replicated system files are present. TEM can be configured using the “foreign domain” feature to take contr
