Hello I'm setting up a two-machine cyrus cluster using OCFS2 over DRBD. The setup is working fine, and I'm now considering the load balancing options I have.
I believe the simplest option would be to simply rely on DNS load balancing. However, for this to work, I need to consider what happens when one of the cluster nodes fails, regarding the clients which access the cluster: - Will IMAP and POP3 clients automatically try the second DNS entry if connecting to the first one fails? - Will the LMTP client also do this? I'm using the postfix LMTP client for delivery. Does any one have experience with this kind of setup? Thanks in advance, Andre ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
