If I do that can I still replicate sessions? Would the instances still be part of a cluster?
Right now, if an instance is part of a cluster it does not even show up in the web site configuration tool. Only the cluster shows up. This led me to believe you could not bind a site to an instance which was part of a cluster. ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Russ [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 26, 2007 5:12 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Targetting an instance You can have separate virtual sites, one for each instance, and have each instance provide the health check. Hardware LB will then rotate between instances.
