To merge several separate Intellect Axxon PSIM Servers with separate license keys and separate databases to a single common configuration, do the following:

1. Update all Servers and Clients in the distributed system to the same Intellect Axxon PSIM version.

2. Make sure that your network or firewall settings do not restrict any ports required for Intellect Axxon PSIM operation on any Server. See the list of ports by the following link:

3. Combine all license files into a single license file. It will be used on all servers. To do this, please contact your AxxonSoft manager. Please note that the maximum allowed number of Clients is only limited by the license. Please contact your AxxonSoft manager for details.
4. Create the single common configuration as follows:
   1. Select a Server to be the main Server in the distributed system. Put the single license file you received from the manager to the Intellect Axxon PSIM installation folder on this main Server. If you don't have the license file yet, enable the Axxon PSIM Demo mode as follows:
      1. Shut Intellect Axxon PSIM down.
      2. Remove the intellectpsim.sec license file from the Intellect Axxon PSIM installation folder to any other folder (e.g. to the Desktop).
      3. Pull out the Guardant USB dongle (Guardant or MatrixLock).
      4. Run Intellect Axxon PSIM.

   2. Configure the distributed system on the Hardware tab: add all the Servers, Video capture devices and other objects.

   3. Configure connections on the Architecture tab: specify all the IP addresses and/or DNS names.

   4. Having configured the above, distribute the single license file between all Servers and enable database synchronization on each Server. Synchronize each secondary Server with the main Server. The SQL database of the main Server must be the source of synchronization.

   5. If the above configuration was performed in the Axxon PSIM Demo mode, proceed as follows:

      1. Create a backup copy of the database.

      2. Restore this backup on each Server.

      3. Put the single intellectpsim.sec license file to the Intellect Axxon PSIM installation folder on each Server.

The merging according to these instructions will help you to start using Intellect Axxon PSIM immediately after completing all the actions described. If everything is configured correctly, Intellect Axxon PSIM will launch in a single distributed system.

Only the archive recorded from the main Server cameras will be available in Intellect Axxon PSIM. The archive recorded from other Servers can only be viewed using the Axxon Player utility. This is due to the fact that the camera unique IDs are changed when merging, so the archive becomes unavailable.
