Changing the Canon Multifunction Machines to Synchronize
Document number: A0YC-1RH
This section describes the procedure required to replace or change the server machine and client machines after starting synchronization of personalized data.
When changing the server machine, it is recommended to adjust the network settings (IP address and host name) on the new server machine to match the settings of the old server machine. If the settings of the new server machine differ from those of the old server machine, the client machines may not synchronize properly until the information to connect to the server machine is changed.
Changing the Server Machine (When Replication Is Not Set)
You can replace the server machine with a synchronized client machine, or change the server machine to another Canon multifunction machine that is not synchronized.
Changing the Server Machine (When Replication Is Set)
You can replace the server machine with a Canon multifunction machine that is a replication destination, or change the server machine to another Canon multifunction machine.
: The server machine : Canon multifunction machine that is the replication destination : Another Canon multifunction machine
* When you use replication data to recover a server machine whose storage space has been replaced, see the procedure for changing to another Canon multifunction machine.
You can skip this step if you cannot stop replication due to a malfunction of the server machine or other factor. Proceed to Step 2.
* If you cannot stop replication, the multifunction machine set as the replication destination cannot be set as the replication destination of another server machine. In this case, on the multifunction machine acting as the replication destination, start synchronization as a server machine, and then stop synchronization. (Replication is canceled when synchronization as a server machine starts.)
If you cannot stop synchronization due to a malfunction on the old client machine, stop the client machine synchronization from the server machine. Checking Information of a Client Machine
* Until you stop synchronization of the client machine, it is still counted as a connected machine even after the change.
