Is anyone running BaanIVc in a load balancing (active/active) configuration? We're considering this and would like to know if it's even possible.

Hi Shane,

I am unable to understand, can you elaborate / explain ??

Are you trying to say abt using 2 apps server with a single DB server ??

Yes it should be possible. We are on 5.2/6.1/LN Versions I am not sure of all the implications in Baan-4 version.

Yes

We are using a (hardware) load-balancer in front of 4 application servers. Jobs and some heavy users are running on/using directly a fifth application server which is also the backup maschine for the db-server (HAS).

So in total we have 6 servers:
4 with a loadbalancer in front for the normal users,
a db-server
a backup db-server which is also used for heavy users and jobs.

The $BSE folder (except of $BSE/log and some special files which needs to be unique for each server) for all servers is placed on a SAN and shared by nfs.

Great. That sounds very similar to what we are considering.

It's nice to know others have had success with something before going off on a wild goose chase.
