1. A method for migrating a communication from a first to a second communication server, comprising:
- (a) determining that at least one communication is to be controlled by a second communication server, wherein the at least one communication was formerly controlled by a first communication server;
(b) receiving, from a first communication node, first communication information, wherein the first communication information is associated with the at least one communication and comprises at least one of a first node identifier and a communication identifier, the communication identifier is associated with the at least one communication, the second communication node comprises second communication information associated with the at least one communication and/or second node, and the first node identifier is associated with second communication information;
(c) thereafter receiving, from a second communication node, the second communication information; and
(d) identifying the second communication information based on the at least one of a first node identifier and communication identifier.

Abstract
The present invention is directed to a secondary communication server 216 for assuming control of a communication formerly controlled by a primary communication server 212 in the event of a failure, comprising:
- (a) an input operable to (i) receive, from a first communication node 204a, first communication information, wherein the first communication information is associated with the communication and comprises a first node identifier 236a and/or a communication identifier 240a, the first node identifier 236a is associated with a second communication node 204b, the communication identifier is associated with the communication, and the second communication node 204b comprises second communication information associated with the communication and (ii) thereafter receive, from the second communication node 204b, the second communication information; and
- (b) a reconstruction agent 228 operable to identify the second communication information based on the first node identifier 236a and/or communication identifier 240a.
