Troubleshooting
Problem
Customer would like to have multiple Controller application servers working together to provide load balancing (for the WSS portion of the Controller server architecture).
- In other words, the work of the Controller server system is shared between two (or more) physically separate Windows servers.
How can they achieve this?
NOTE: The functionality described in this Technote only works with Controller 10.2.713 (or later).
Symptom
There are many different individual components that comprise the Controller server system.
- TIP: For more details, see separate IBM Technote #1364071.
This Technote *only* relates to the portion of the Controller architecture known as WSS (the Controller 'Web Services Server').
- For the avoidance of doubt, the technique explained inside this document does not provide high availability for the Controller Web (WebSphere) component, which was introduced from Controller 10.3 onwards.
