Hello all.
Well ok the docs are read and the prototype is being constructed (4 node
cluster,
redundant redirector). If all this works, the cluster will scale to around 10
nodes
however 2 of the nodes must be NT and it looks like there is a requirement that
one node be a Novell server.
So initially I was planning on using the NAT approach. However I am concerned
with
bandwidth through the redirector (there will be about 1500 clients accessing
the services
of the virtual server). Most of the servers will be Linux providing
file services via samba and web services via apache to M$ clients.
I would like to use tunneling for the linux nodes to get better bandwidth on
file and web xfers and NAT for the non-linux servers.
Has anyone given any thoughts to this type of configuration ? Using NAT for
some of the nodes and tunneling for the others? Is it even do-able ?
Thanks and Wensong...excellent work!!!
