Hi, I'm looking at running Mailman on a cluster of servers, sharing a single disk with Apple XSan.
I presume that everything done through the web interface must be resilient to multiple simultaneous attempts to modify - say - a list membership. So, I expect that I can put the list databases on a shared file system. But, what about the queue runners. Is it safe to share the queues between servers? If its safe to run multiple queue runners on one queue on one machine, then I should be OK - but I'm not sure that Mailman does that. If not, then I'm probably safer leaving the queues on unshared file systems, and accepting that a some queued items won't get processed while a cluster member is unavailable. -- Ian Eiloart IT Services, University of Sussex _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
