FSC remote multiple-level cache failover configuration
This configuration provides failover for either a single point of failure, or failover if both of the FSC Remote Group 3 cache machines fail. 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 Half of the users are assigned to FSC Cache 1 as the primary FSC, half are assigned to FSC Cache 2. If either FSC cache machine fails, the FCCs fail over to the other FSC. Hot remote failover Both of the FSC remote cache machines are caching files. Therefore, if one fails, the other machine takes up the additional traffic. There is potential performance degradation. More remote FSC caches Additional FSC remote cache machines can be added to divide users over more machines. Additional machines decrease performance degradation of a single FSC machine failure. Cold failover All requests from the FSC remote group go through the FSC Cache 1 machine. The FSC Cache 2 machine is idle until there is a failure, in which case the FSC remote cache machines fail to FSC Cache 2. FSC Cache 2 can be assigned local LAN access to utilize this spare capacity.
