Sychronize configuration

Is there a way to synchronize the settings between two different Jamroom systems? I have the files synchronized between my production and development server but if you make a change in the cp in one you have to manually do it in the other. This is prone to errors. I'm looking to make sure all the modules and quotas are configured the same.

All the settings are stored in the DB, so you might look for a sync tool for MySQL - there's no support directly in Jamroom for something like this.

Hope this helps!

Obviously I don't want to sync the entire database. In a cluster scenario the data will be different. Is there specific tables that store the module config information?

If not, it would be great if you could export and import settings as an xml file.

the main settings are in the jr_jrcore_settings table, and quota settings are in jr_jrprofile_quota* tables.

Hope this helps!

There are many DB tools (phpMyAdmin, Sequel Pro) that will allow you to export your DB tables in XML - that's not something we would add directly into Jamroom.

Since the cluster server was killed off for JR5, I'm curious what the plans are to allow JR to scale beyond a single server. I've asked this question in the past, but no explanation is ever given.

Yes and your last response there was:

"More info on this will come in the future - I'm not able to get into any real details at this time, as it is not supported currently, and things can certainly change. "

Sure - but this remains:

brian:
There is no cluster server with JR5 - both servers would be identical, with each handling 1/2 the incoming requests. The load balancer would responsible for distributing the requests to the servers. The JR servers would not communicate with each other.

That will not change.

I have not started on any of it though, as I'm not aware of any Jamroom site that would even come close to needing it. You could easily do millions of requests a day on a single dedicated server with JR5, so until we have a site that is pushing that type of volume we will likely dedicate our resources to features that the majority of our users need.

Thanks!
