At one location, we NFS mounted our webroot to our web server boxes, and coldfusion machines, which worked well.
I have also worked in a high-traffic environment, where the preference was to perform scheduled implementations on all boxes. In this case, we would deploy the whole code base to each server, and then verify that they were in sync before putting them back in service. The idea here is to reduce customer impact by removing a single point of failure, (ie a SAN), as well as remove any latency of network calls off the box. It depends on what your goals are. speeves On Wed, Feb 18, 2009 at 1:25 PM, Matthew Williams <[email protected]>wrote: > > That's going to highly depend on your server architecture.
