Re: Scalability with hw load balancing

Thanks Nick and Chris.

We were under the impression that there would be more JMS overhead with active-active, and for this reason we were recommended to go with active-failover. With roughly 300 users, half of those full time, does this seem reasonable? Other factors we should be weighing in?

Nick, I'm not clear on your comment that if we failover to the 2nd app server, we would need to take the first app server out of the pool. Do you mean if we're directing traffic at the app servers via the LB? Otherwise, this would be handled by OTM SCA, wouldn't it?

I wasn't aware that multiple report instances wasn't supported. We can change our plans to use just one report instance - or can you briefly touch on the manual process you eluded to?

Lastly, we are 5.5 CU04, but haven't installed RU01. Chris - do you know if we're lacking anything pertinent to SCA by not having the RU installed?

Thanks,
Scott T.
