If a Verba system is installed at different locations in a multi-site environment and may need to use multiple recording servers to scale up, there are more than one Verba Recording Servers. Verba stores server information (the hostname of the Recording Server, which has recorded the call) in every call record and provides searching capabilities based on this field.
Moreover, the system provides central configuration capabilities through Verba server administration.
In order to define Verba servers, the administrator or the system administrators have to select Administration / Verba Servers menu item.
Creating a Verba Server
You can add servers by clicking on the Add New Verba Server link on the Administration / Verba Servers page. The system automatically registers the servers after installation. After pushing the button the following page opens.
The following table describes the available fields:
Field Name | Description | Requirements |

Hostname | FQDN of the server | Required field. Minimum length: 1 Maximum length: 255 Must be unique in the system. |
| Role | Select the desired role for this server | - |
Configuration Profile | Select the desired configuration profile to use for this server. All settings configured in the configuration profile will be available for the server.

After filling out the form, press the Save button to save server data into the database.
