So I am disappointed I expected CPU and bandwidth levels to drop (kind of be split amongst the servers) when adding another server. I guess I do not quite understand the benefit of having another server. Could someone explain to me the benefits?

I think I figured it out, because it is working now. I had versions 26 and 23 I looked in the log files and saw a FAT error stating the server was a higher number than the database, so I upgraded sever1 to the same version. For now, it seems to be working.

I just noticed on server2 that the server says it is stopped, in the upper right even though I can see the cameras. When I hit start->apply it does not change status.

I set up multiple servers (2) for zoneminder. when I log on to servers 1 and 2 I can see all the cameras. I was wondering if it is beneficial to have a few cameras connected to 1 server and the remainder connected to the other. I tried adding one to the new server but it would not display anything ...

oops, spoke too soon. Now I cannot get zmninja on android to display anything

Thanks for the reply. I made changes to iptables

It is now functioning!!!!

I find Montage impossible to use. Currently, I use montage review, which works for the most part but I would like to be able to use Montage. When I use the Montage view it totally freezes my browsers, Firefox/Chrome. Everything just hangs for several seconds, 30+.

No, I was stating that my last name is shaffer also

So the montage review seems to work well but the montage view is unusable the cameras keep disappearing and makes the browser very slow, when you click on a menu item it can take over 30 seconds for it to respond.

lol, my last name is shaffer...I got a chuckle

So for close to 2 years, I have been running 1.33.1 regardless of folks saying I should not, it has worked fine for me. However I have recently added more cameras, 4 more, it pegged my cpu, using an intel i3 2 cores.... I installed 1.34.23 on xubuntu 20.04. on an intel i7 now. When I go into montage ...

Running great after a week now. Actually the log show green and no errors, first ever since I have been running it, started in June.

So I did a purge remove and did a new install, still 1.33.1 released on 23-Jan and it seems to be working again.

Running xubuntu 18.04 LTS

So my previous version of zoneminder kept popping up saying there was an update. So after getting annoyed of seeing the pop up I, like a fool, I decided to upgrade. I am running Bionic, I saw an error message when trying to do the update that there was no release candidate for Bionic. So I looked ...
