Requirements for Each Integration Server in a Cluster
The requirements of each Integration Server in a given cluster are as follows:
*All Integration Servers in a cluster must be of the same version.
*All Siebel Adapters in a cluster must be of the same version.
*All adapter packages on one Integration Server should be replicated to all other Integration Servers in the cluster.
*An identical adapter connection must appear on all servers in the cluster so that any Integration Server in the cluster can handle a given request identically. If you plan to use connection pools in a clustered environment, see Considerations When Configuring Connections with Connection Pooling Enabled.
*Each 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.
See Replicating Packages to webMethods Integration Servers for information about replicating adapter packages, connections, and adapter services across multiple Integration Servers in a cluster.
