So there is no way to set up even a manual switchover to a replicated Open_E server? For example, I have two identical servers. Primary is online, the secondary is strictly a replication destination for the primary. Should there be a catastrophic failure of the Primary I want the secondary to take over as soon as possible.

The only way I can see to do it now is to manually reconfigure everything on the secondary server which could take days. Disabling replication or changing to source, set up all the shares, permissions etc.

There's no way to keep a copy of the pertinent config options and copy them over?
