SVN Write-through proxy: should Master and Slave repository have same UUID?

[Peter Parker <sv...@yogasurftech.de>]

We are in a write-through setup. Should I set the UUID of master and 
slave repository to same UUID?
In this case I can switch easily from master to slave in case of 
afailure of my slave machine. However I feel a little bit uncomfortable, 
because both repositories are NOT the same, but should have the same 
contents.

What is the recommendation for this scenario?

Does anybody have any experieces with same UUID?

Regards,
Peter

Yes, you should set them to the same uuid.

Try  svnadmin help setuuid

These are two copies of the same repository. Don't worry.

You can switch from slave to master. The slave itself is read-only.
