APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The text "Web server gateway" shown in the following diagram,
    should be corrected to "Web server gateway with dispatcher" as
    same as ReportNet documentation.
    
    Architecture and Deployment Guide - Page 76
    Load Balancing Without an External Mechanism
    (Diagram appears on page 77)
    
    The current diagram describes that gateway server with no
    dispatcher can perform load balancing among multiple
    dispatchers, but it is not true.
    
    NOTE: We can specify multiple dispatchers URIs from Cognos
    Configuration in Congos 8 Gateway server and it is true it is an
    enhanced functionality comparing to ReportNet, but it should NOT
    mean gateway component can perform load balancing.
