Alternative deadline machine

Hi!

Is it possible to configure a deadline for 2 machines, so that if one fails, the other machine gets into the play as a backup one?

Can someone help how to configure that If possible!?

What is the point of not utilizing both, if possible?

If Incase one machine failed (lost connection/any hardware issue/power issue) the other machine still supports the line, so artists have no trouble

You missed my point, why not run both all the time? Or are they being used interactively too?

Yeah, If they can run both parallel using the same database and repo, is it possible to set it up that way? basically I was looking for High availability

That’s what a render farm is. You have the central repository (which communicates with the database, etc.) and as many workers as you want.
