Solaris 8 test environment / What are you using Wackamole for?
|
|
No word yet, but I only emailed a few hours ago. Sorry about the nasty
formatting of that first post. Going from Pine to Hotmail is ugly.
I'm not sure if this is off-topic or not, but I'm curious what others are
using Wackamole for?
Our proposed environment is using round-robin DNS pointing at the VIPs of
each Apache server running the Weblogic Load-balancing/clustering Plug-in,
which in turn keep track of all BEA servers, which in turn pass all state
information and communicate to both Oracle DB servers which in turn are
constantly talking to each other (I'm not a DBA or even pretend to know what
is going on with Weblogic, but I understand networking). My ASCII-art only
shows a pair of each server, but you could scale any portion of this to
include more servers depending on where the load and bottlenecks are.
-------------- --------------
| Apache w/ | | Apache w/ |
| Weblogic |---| Weblogic |

Without Wackamole, we'd need something like a pair of Cisco Local Directors
out front, but those are $10K each plus a $200 failover cable (you'd think
they'd just give the failover cable to you for spending $20K).

PS: Don't use a subject like that looks like spam, as your message will end
up in my junk filter and never be read.
