What benefit does apache load balancing > bring to my testing of the clustering features? If you wanted to mimic load-balancing (meaning that you as a human arbitrarily choose which back-end instance to contact) then you didn't need Apache httpd in the mix: you can simply connect directly to whichever Tomcat you want. I think we're getting off-topic, though, as it seems the cluster membership is the problem and not loca-balancing and/or app-server-selection. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSOL/UAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYITUQAMYsZ2jxr/9j8ECtNpR94mS0 jaNzkqHizcUm2B0RFMlqArrdZX6W+7IaaE4L2ZVTDvlBtXP8bYwkLFq/Irvv+g2E Y13SIzN9IIfR3+ZsYjOkDKeiEGo3z7nYaEhbB+wu3EIFjLIV4K88QTpcdCu8Q+uo D6OLtKOmqzUUJk/aLPCBV0OmiwK/BVdoLUMGG/prFaQohId+5ay7DFrukjKusDAb EtOtJe6nNdciAsj5jaQhpybOozoKHICiPJT4zURRfoXCUjD8nlCt6SwlMaKVCSVC 5HoO4LtVYbkUG3j8MeUiLXGoGqvNEmg+vEFB5MyAzeCqzzVokpvUi4Mfmj0k2/HQ IRSCoqZsrarFjT4JsUnMUV+r79xzJZpiz864F4Jyhatztb6dZpOZ3ZLUb0e8/0ft SUiK+a8Ao1m29LsEtSC9JrsDM6+NqOIk28c8hKl73dGOeYGhxDpJkpE09wlUcEB1 qEO/LOGFsdOBZuVOhFj6r9dYdWVvBMvGcm8BdDIhdlteGNcFJgoqFsXRAhDvORck DLDsvKSfT4DxyKcgnkBMcDg9x1JjVjk1Z9dZRMl/9fdhGCQFZhMin9ORTtsp2fx5 4bc5qs/NRUdtc1g4uNcAqUw9yAV++afpIhygLnN7JWtvjMVf63C4wtvR0oQPTE8H usbZAJrT1/yN/7ZBnZrf =2SwC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
