Every Integration Server in the cluster should contain an identical set of packages that you define using a specific adapter. You should replicate the adapter services, the connections they use, and the adapter notifications.

To ensure consistency, Software AG recommends creating all packages on one server and replicating them to the other servers. If you allow different servers to contain different services, you might not derive the full benefits of clustering. For example, if a client requests a service that resides in only one server, and that server is unavailable, the request cannot be successfully redirected to another server.

For more information about replicating packages, see webMethods Integration Server Administrator’s Guide.
