How to create a redundant site for disaster recovery

Question

Hello,

I install confluence on my server (4.3) with Mysql and it work great. However, I need to have a redundant system for disater recovery. The backup server will be in another location and will have the same configuration as the one in production.

At various interval, I will need to switch site. ie., making the current production the standby and the standby will be change to production.  I could setup my sql replication to the remote location

How could I set up such a machine?. Also, how does this affect my license.

Thanks

We have an evaluation license and is considering buying licenses for this product. Our current setup is

MYSQL, COnfluence 4.3.2

It is instal on our server (win 2008 R2 64 bit ) OS . I have a similar machine in a remote location and is currently replication the MYSQL DB (confluence is NOT install) . I need some help on how to setp/confgure Confluence on the remote machine and switch to it.

A detail procedure would be very helpful. I need to do this swich (Both ways) . This is one of blocking issue for issuing a PO for confluence licenses.

Thanks in advance for your help
