Thanks for the reply Karol

What I mean is using 2 servers to connect to the same DB.
This DB is in a shared disk that both servers can access.
So I would have, for example, 100 clients connecting on server 1, another 100 clients on server 2, but both accessing the same shared database


​you can have all those clients accessing the database, but not in that way. The database should NOT be on a shared drive, all access goes through the firebird server process on the machine that owns the disk containing the database. You can force the setup to be as you describe but you will rapidly get a corrupt database​
