Use the following instructions for setting up a remote SQL Anywhere database server.
To set up a remote SQL Anywhere database server

installation instructions, refer to “Choosing an Installation Method” on page 18.
2. Stop all Nokia Intellisync services on each server in the cluster. For more information, see
“Starting and Stopping Services” on page 27.
Setting Up Database Mirroring
Database mirroring is a configuration of two or three separate operational database servers that
work together to maintain copies of the database and transaction log files.
The Nokia Intellisync server and the mirror server each maintain a copy of the database files and
transaction log files. The third server, the Arbiter server, does not maintain a copy of the
database but determines which of the other two servers has ownership of the database.
Configuring three database servers (the Nokia Intellisync server, mirror, and Arbiter) is referred
to as a mirroring system, and the Nokia Intellisync and mirror servers together are the
operational servers or partners.
