Re: Consolidating Clusters -- DOMINO400

No need to redesign the clusters just to keep the NAB in synch. 
We push/pull NAB changes from one cluster to another using a connection 
doc to only one server in each cluster. Set the replication interval to 1 
minute  if necessary to keep everyone happy.
This will minimize rep save conflicts which will occur if you are 
replicating/clustering the NAB.

Happy Holidays,


 Sean

subject: Consolidating clusters

Currently we only put like servers in a cluster.  For example we have 
three clusters:

Cluster            Member
NOTES01CLUSTER     NOTES01
                   NOTES02
LDAPCLUSTER        LDAP01
                   LDAP02
SAMETIMECLUSTER    SAMETIME01
                   SAMETIME02

We do clustering for failover reasons.

The problem I am having is that users are strongly encouraged to change 
their internet passwords in the NAB on NOTES01 only.  However, when they 
then access applications that use this internet password such as Sametime, 

or other web based applications using the LDAP server their password isn't 

synced yet.

Does anyone not think that putting this all into one cluster is a good 
idea?

Cluster            Member
NOTES01CLUSTER     NOTES01
                   NOTES02
                   LDAP01
                   LDAP02
                   SAMETIME01
                   SAMETIME02

We would still control what databases get created on what server, and on 
which servers replica copies are made.

I thought about doing connection documents between them all, specifying 
the replication of only names.nsf, and a short interval of just a few 
minutes.  However, to a user, a few minutes is a lifetime.
