Default install directory of LB
|
|
| ND_New_server 2004-01-19, 3:03 pm |
| Hi,
Is it possible to change the default installation directory of LB (Load
Balancer) on Aix box (/usr/lpp/nd)?
and is it possible to change the owner of LB unix process (root to xxx
user)?
Any idea
Merci

| Hi Zoubir,
Is it possible to change the directory? I don't know about AIX. Even
if you install the fileset to another directory, you'd have to change
all the /usr/bin ND scripts to find it, plus anything in the
nd/servers/bin directory that references it. I don't know if it's
possible, but it's not recommended as far as I know.
As for the ownership issue, the problem is that root is the only ID
allowed to load a kernel module (ND's executor) -- unless that's changed
recently. So if you're not using the executor (i.e. running Site
Selector, etc), then you could change the owner of the scripts. I
haven't run in that scenario so I don't know if there are other problems
with doing that. But if you're runnig the Dispatcher component and
loading the kernel that the command must be run as root (root owner of
the script, sudo... somehow as root).
Hope that made sense...
Jeff
