Load Balancing

Load Balancing : Basic ideology implementing a Load Balancer is to balance the load on the servers by routing the incoming requests accordingly.

1) Hard Ware Load balancing
2) DNS Load Balancing ( round robin fashion )

U can confirm by doing

dig publicname.domainname.com

or

nslookup publicname.domainname.com

Also to confirm tht DNS is routing requests properly

do

telnet publicname.domainname.com

- It will show hostname1

again if u do

telnet publicname.domainname.com

- It should show hostname2


- XML variables involved

s_webentryurlprotocol
s_webentryhost
s_webentrydomain
s_active_webport
s_login_page
s_external_url


UR's Key Run ;-)
