Requirements for Each Integration Server in a Cluster
The following table describes the requirements of each Integration Server in a given cluster:
All Integration Servers in a given cluster must have identical...
For Example...
Integration Server versions
All Integration Servers in the cluster must be the same version, with the same service packs and fixes applied.
Adapter packages
All adapter packages on one Integration Server should be replicated to all other Integration Servers in the cluster.
Adapter versions
All adapters in the cluster must be the same version.
Adapter connections
If you configure a connection to the Domino Server, this connection must appear on all servers in the cluster so that any Integration Server in the cluster can handle a given request identically.
Adapter services
If you configure a specific adapter service, this same adapter service must appear on all servers in the cluster so that any Integration Server in the cluster can handle the request identically.
If you allow different Integration Servers to contain different services, you might not derive the full benefits of clustering. For example, if a client requests a service that resides on only one server, and that server is unavailable, the request cannot be successfully redirected to another server.
For information about replicating adapter packages, connections, and adapter services across multiple Integration Servers in a cluster, see Replicating Packages to webMethods Integration Servers.
