In essence the ACE OBR is just a folder on the filesystem and the repository.xml is dynamically recreated when something changes. ACE OBR does not provide a feature to replicate, but any standard means available to replicate that folder is an option. For example a highly available and/or replicated filesystem, rsync, or some custom scripting. I guess it would be wise to exclude the repository.xml from the replication set. Then an ACE artifact is only loosely coupled to the OBR by means of an absolute (resource) url. So if you have an ACE server with an artifact that reference a resource by means of an url like "http://obr1.my.domain/obr/somebundle.jar"; and host obr1.my.domain fails you will have to switch that host to a standby server. Again, there is no specific ACE feature but many options are available. For example a checking loadbalancer, or a watchdog script and some dns trickery. > Thank you in advance for your response, Hope this helps :) Best Regards, Bram > My Best Regards, > Ghania
