Hi list, We've been reading documentation for SRS 5.4 relative to Failover group configuration. As per the documentation, when a client tries to discover possible servers to connect, DNS record for 'sunray-servers' is looked up and picked one randomly.
If I understood it correctly, on the failover group part, seems that when one of the servers of the group fails, the sessions are distributed amongst the remaining servers, but that doesn't mean that the session is redirected. Instead, the client will have to reconnect and therefore will fall in any of the remaining servers, as the DNS record will be looked up again. So here goes the question: Then what's the benefit of configuring a failover group? I mean, it's ok that the servers share session information for the users whose server has fell off, but what's the advantage of this approach if the session for the user is interrupted and they have to reconnect? Any hints will be very helpful! Thanks! Regards, Edwin
