Hi, I'm getting somewhat confused with how Scalr DNS hangs together and wondered if anybody could advise. Here's what I require (which sounds easy but for some reason I can't seem to get my head round it today, it's either too much or not enough coffee....!)
I need to - 1. Create x2 server farms - i.e farm1 (Nginx balancer + x2 app servers + MySQL instance) and farm2 (no balancer, single app server + MySQL instance). 2. Host the TLD of the domain in Scalr with the main website (i.e 'domain.com') on farm1 along with a selection of sub domains (i.e one.domain.com, two.domain.com etc). 3. Host a selection of other sub domains on farm2 (from the same TLD), i.e three.domain.com, four.domain.com (etc). My confusion is this, do need to - 1. Create multiple subdomain 'domains' (alongside the TLD) and allocate them accordingly to the relevant farms? (Farms need a domain or domains allocating to them?). 2. Just create vhosts and point at the relevant app-servers? 3. A combination of 1 & 2? ...and, what extra (if any) DNS entries do I need to create (manually?) for any/all of the (correct( selection above?). I'm reluctant to map anything to EIPs (although I seem able to get a degree of functionality by doing so), but if that's the way to go (by creating A records to EIPs) I presume for the Nginx balancer I'd allocate an EIP to that? Just looking for the cleanest solution really, any advice appreciated. Richard. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "scalr-discuss" group.
