Better pratice to archiving on 2 servers

Google Groups archive

Hello,

What is the best practice for archiving DICOM on 2 archiving instances:
1) Use an instance of ORHTANC for Routing with LUA script to 2 servers ARCH01 and ARCH02(in fact 3 instances of ORTHANC)
2) use an instance of ORTHANC for routing with LUA script to ARCH01 and another lua script on ARCH01 instance for routing on ARCH02 ?

Another way ?

Thank you for you help and sorry for my english..

Hello,

As far as I’m concerned, I would rather use the PostgreSQL plugin [1], and resort to the enterprise-ready backup procedures that are available for PostgreSQL [2].

If you want to use the default, vanilla version of Orthanc that uses SQLite, favor your solution (1), as it will reduce the number of hops with the DICOM protocol.

HTH,
