PC Naming Requirements

If you are installing ProcessLogix software on a
redundant Server pair, be certain that the computer
names end with the letters A and B for the Primary
and Secondary Servers, respectively. For example,
use the name PLX1A for the Primary Server
(SERVERA) and PLX1B for the Secondary Server
(SERVERB)

If you are installing ProcessLogix software on a
non-redundant Server, be certain that the computer
name DOES NOT end with the letter A or B.
