Connection to external DB between Own DBs

I have 2 or more vaults on different servers. I want to link object types between different vaults on different servers so they are available in all locations without updating all the settings in all vaults. I have a drop-down menu stored in an object type that is being frequently changed and I need the changes to be reflected in all vaults after updating only the Master vault. I have troubles connecting the objects using the "connection to external DB"... Is there a tutorial or plug and play solution? Any prerequisites as software installed on both servers, etc?

  • Replication between vaults work in stages:

    1. The master vault creates a replication package. You decide the destination. It may very well be a folder on your local network. It could also be on protected blob storage or similar on the internet.
    2. If the receiving vault does not have access the original destination you need to move the package to a place where the receiving vault can access it. You can use a USB drive if you want, or you can use a VPN or a transfer service like Wetransfer.com or any other means suitable in your case.
    3. The receiving vault imports the replication package from where ever you made it available to that server.

    Obviously, the easiest way to automate this process is to choose a destination to which both servers have access. That way it can run automatically in the background without additional manual or automated processes.
