Distributing Components for Load Balancing of the Consolidation Functions
You can build on the previous distribution example
and further balance the load for the calculation and consolidation
functions of IBM® Cognos® Controller.
In the following diagram, the components are distributed across several computers, and two computers are set up for consolidation load balancing.
In this example, you install Controller Web Services Server on two computers and then move the COM+ components that are used for consolidation to the second computer. The first computer serves as a request server and accepts user requests, but it does not perform consolidation tasks. You also install the Controller Client Distribution Server on this computer to communicate with the internal clients. The second computer serves as the consolidation server and does all the data calculations.
The following diagram provides a more detailed view of this configuration.
