1. The search index is going to be somewhat of a problem. There will need to be some extra development to use a central search engine such as solr.
Yes. Search does not (yet) work in a distributed fashion.
2. The roller_data directory will need to live on a location (NFS perhaps) that is accessible to all instances of roller
Correct.
3. We'll have to turn caching off entirely or look into distributed caching.
The cache is fully pluggable, so you can plugin a distributed cache. You can use memcached as a distributed cache via the plugin here: https://roller.dev.java.net/source/browse/roller/roller_support/tools/memcached/ But we don't have docs for it yet.
4. We'll have to turn off pinging in all the instances except for one.
Correct.
Anything else that I should be aware of? Anybody care to help me out?
I think you are mostly on track. Allen had a good post about distributed Roller a while back, but I was unable to turn it up via Google. - Dave
