If I have a 100 user licence for my production confluence server, what sort of licence do I need for a cold-failover server ?
Do I need another 100 user licence ?
I have looked at the FAQ and in the documentation, I was wondering if I could use a development licence to cover that ?
Hi Jason,
Yes, you can use a development license to cover a cold-failover server - http://www.atlassian.com/licensing/purchase-licensing#licensing-9
"Developer licenses can also be used for non-production installations of our software deployed on a cold stand-by server."
I've used developer licenses for cold standby servers in the past and haven't run into any technical or licensing issues.
Hope that helps?
Andrew.

Im planing to deploy a cold stand-by server for failover puroposes for our production instance. Does development license apply in this case?

Since the cold failover is non-production, it does apply. You always only have ONE single server as production with this solution.

Topping the question,
Can both Active and cold standby server connect to one single mysql database?

For cold failover we have to keep the databse and home directory seperatly ?

On the topic of failover: Atlassian has just released a dedicated best practice guide for High Availability. It covers a cold failover scenario and includes implementation details on reverse proxying, monitoring, replication and failover mechanisms:
