There’s a number of existing suggestions addressing this. I suggest you comment/vote in those existing threads in order to avoid distracting/dispersing votes.
I did a search and so far haven’t seen this one.
I have a friend who lives in Africa and she doesn’t have enough BW to stream from my server but her boy friend set up a Plex server on an old laptop and they can afford Plex Pass. Could we enable shared libraries to be synced from server to server?
There would have to be some sort of sanity to the sync, maybe a throttle mechanic or/and a time period where it can go crazy and use all the BW and then throttle back down when people would be awake. …
I think a simple DB sync feature could be:
If Svr 1 (PMS) shutsdown the now closed DB will be automated uploaded to Google drive for example.
If Svr 2 (PMS) will be started then the uploaded DB will be downloaded automated and overwrites the old DB on Svr 2 and therefore you have all the watch Status etc in sync.
This means that you have identical PMS installs on both Svr. In my Case then two SSDs.
(+ you have the DB for backup purposes on Google drive in case HDD or SSD dies)
Therefore closing this thread as a duplicate.
