Abiility to toggle between 2 Zoo Servers

Zoo
1

Is there a way for end users to toggle between 2 different Zoo Servers.

The reason why we have 2 Zoo Servers has to deal with more accounting/finance requirements that i don’t want to bore anyone with ,but basically I have 2 Zoo Servers (on different vlans). Zoo A has 11 licenses, while Zoo B has 7 licenses.

When Zoo B is maxed out, i would like the users the ability to switch over with Zoo A (and vice versa), without having to make registry changes, since the end users do not have admin rights.

Thoughts?

No, Rhino does not provide a way of ‘toggling’ between Zoo servers.

Here is how Rhino finds a Zoo server:

As you can see from the above, the first place Rhino looks for the name of the Zoo server is in the current user registry hive. Thus, its possible to write an application or script that will switch the location - basically modifying this key.
