What about mapping two different drives from all three servers, and having your CF solution write the files to both mapped drives?
-----Original Message----- From: Ben Koshy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, January 26, 2003 3:55 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Load Balancing: Disk Options? Hey Guys, Just wondering if you can shed some advice on a couple load balancing issues. We're moving to a 3 Server Cluster running Cold Fusion 5.0 using a Foundry Server Iron XL. We've got the Load Balancing Part down and it works great. However, now we turn our attention to the Cold Fusion Server...because the site receives a lot of "files", we need some way of consolodating the upload directory or directories and still maintain redundancy. Also it would be nice having to update Cold Fusion files on one server/one place as well. We're using the Windows Platform so options like: A) Map a Drive to A Common Directory/Drive on Another Computer B) Network Attached Storage C) File Replication / Synchronization between Servers. Anyone have recommendations? Remember we want to maintain redundancy so mapping a drive to a single machine seems to be out. Another way would be to go NAS, but are there any cheap redundant NAS clustering solutions out there? File Replication sounds promising but I'm worried about replication lag and stuff... Sincerely, Ben. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
