Alternate FSC remote cache failover configuration

This configuration provides a failover configuration with a local cache at the remote location, but this configuration results in files being loaded over the WAN multiple times if the remote location cache fails. Primary configuration file (FSC_HOME/fmsmaster_fscid.xml) This file is configured similar to the previous examples. See the FSC_HOME/fmsmaster.xml.template file for all available elements. The key points of this configuration's configuration file are: User assigned groups All users are assigned to the shared FSC remote Cache 1 FCC failover When the FSC remote Cache 1 machine fails, all remote users' FCCs failover to FSC Cache1. If that machine also fails, all remote users fail over to FSC Cache 2. As a result, FSC Cache 2 is normally an idle machine. FCC configuration failover FCCs receive configuration download data from the FSC remote Cache 1 machine. If this machine is down, the FCCs receive the configuration download data from the FSC Cache 1 machine. If this machine is also down, the FCCs receive the configuration download data from the FSC Cache 2 machine. entryfsc parameter This parameter specifies the routing during normal operations when file requests flow through the FSC Remote Group during normal operations. If the remote cache fails, these statements have no effect. When the remote cache fails, users are assigned FSC Cache 1 or FSC Cache 2, according to the client masks. FCC_EnableDirectFSCRouting parameter This parameter does not need to be set; there is only one FSC in the FSC Remote group, which is the primary group for all users. This parameter applies only to the primary assigned group, it does not apply to secondary groups if the remote cache server fails. Thus, this parameter setting has no impact on this configuration. WAN settings During normal operations, traffic between the groups is based on the link parameters which specify WAN acceleration. During failover operations the assigned FSCs in the masks specify that the FCC should use WAN acceleration for access to the FSC Group 1 cache servers.
