FCC direct connect configuration

This configuration provides a standard multiple FSC configuration for small or medium deployments. This configuration contains a single FSC group, with an FSC deployed for each volume. Clients download files directly from the appropriate volume server. This configuration may handle approximately three times the file transfer volume of a single FSC deployment, since there are now three (essentially) independent FSC servers. Primary configuration file (FSC_HOME/fmsmaster_fscid.xml) This file is configured similar to the previous example for the single FSC configuration. See the FSC_HOME/fmsmaster.xml.template file for all available elements. Key points of this file in this configuration are: Multiple FSCs This configuration contains three FSCs deployed on different boxes, each containing a single volume. Direct user access By default, a multiple FSC deployment enables all clients to directly download files from any FSC in the group that contains the clients assigned FSC. assignedfsc element All users have an assigned FSC even though direct routing is enabled. In this configuration, the assigned FSC is only used to determine the group and the list of FSCs to which the client may directly connect. More complex deployments described in later sections describe additional roles for the assigned FSC. Separation of configuration and data paths All FCCs and FSCs bootstrap the configuration file from FSC1, but users access files via all three FSC volume servers. A sample of the primary configuration file for this configuration is: Copy FSC configuration files (FSC_HOME/fsc.xml) In this example, each FSC has a separate fsc.xml file. See the FSC_HOME/fsc.xml.template file for all available elements. Key points of this file in this configuration are: Multiple FSC configuration files Each FSC has a separate configuration file. fmsmaster element Specifies that FSC1 is the primary configuration server in the FSC1config file. The FSC2 and FSC3 configuration files download the primary configuration file from FSC1. A sample FSC configuration file for this configuration is: Copy FSC1 FSC2 FSC3 FCC configuration file (FMS_HOME/fcc.xml) This example of the FCC configuration file is similar to previous examples: Copy
