== Move servers == | |||
Move servers-script (available only on 4.1-Mona) allows you to automatically reconfigure the server on different ports and rename executables. This avoids clashing with other running servers allowing multi-servers to be run on the same machine. | |||
If you are going to use this feature run the script after extracting UniServer and note the ports that are used. This information is required when installing packages on the server. | |||
