  1. Hello Ales

    is there a special commant to add a second host to an existing sametime community

    Scenario:
    Old Sametime Host runs STVersion 9 or older (st09.acme.local)
    new Sametime Host runs STVersion 11 or newer (st11.acme.local)

    Both Host:
    sametime.ini [config] section share the same community ID=ACME
    policy-users file on both ST Servers point to this update site (im.2012)

    I’ve a managed-community-configs.xml file available on a reachable internal webserver.

    My goal is to first make the new server visible to move over the clients.
    Second step will be to remove the st09 host after migration.

    Unfortunately, my st11 server is not listed in sametime preferences.

    What’s did I do wrong ?
