We've been running Tomcat4.1.27 for some time using from 5 - 10 rack type Win2k servers, JK2, Resonate and SiteMinder in production.
I'm working with Tomcat5.0.25, and there are big differences in the way multiple instances deploy on a single server. For example: the same war on tomcat 1 will deploy it's context xml snippet in /conf/Catalina/localhost along with manager, examples and whatever else I elected in the install.
Tomcat's 2 and 3 do not deploy the xml for the various contexts at all. If I copy in the xml from Tomcat1 and edit any path specific "stuff" that will resolve the surface problem.
This behavior seems to imply that Tomcat 5 is not intended for this particular "brute force" method of scaling. I would like to continue the multiple instance scenario, since jk2's failover capabilities let us fix things that break without taking the entire server out of the mix. Any thoughts?
