| Hi,
I am trying to set up the following.
M/c 1
Edge Server (Primary)
Web Server
M/c2
Edge Server(Secondary)
Web Server
What are thigns that i should watch out for during the installation?
Any standard pitfalls to avoid?
Appreciate suggestions and pointers to documents which can guide me through
this installation and configuration process.
I don't have the access to the SOlaris boxes at the moment for me to try
things out so i am looking for help from you folks in getting things to run
well.
TIA,
Manglu

| Manglu,
The most common problem with HA and collocation is IP aliasing problems.
Make sure that your configuration scripts do NOT alias cluster IPs.
Use the goActive and goStandby scripts to do that automatically through
the HA engine, otherwise you'll have conflicts.
On Solaris, you can't mix collocated bind-specific server applications
(i.e that response only to the cluster IP) and advisors. Bind-specific
requires using an arp publish for advisors to work, but you can't bind
an application to an arp entry.
Also, the Solaris 64bit kernel is only supported with LB v5 and higher,
if you're running v4 then you have to run the 32bit kernel.
Of course, make sure you're at the latest code to avoid any known
problems. If you've never accessed the service2 ftp server for LB fixes
before, you'll need to get the user id and password from the IBM L2 team.
That's all I can think of right now... good luck with the setup when you
start...
