Hi there,
I have two FMS 2 server that I need to use as a failover and load balance to maintain 100% uptime. Does anybody know what would be the best practise doing that or do you know of material to read about this.
Best regards,
Boris

The best approach really depends on the type of applications you're deploying. If the apps are single user (like a recording app), the easiest way is to use a hardware load balancer. If you're deploying multiuser apps and you need to be sure you're routing users to the appropriate server, you might consider building a "gatekeeper" sort of application that handles routing users.

If you can describe the apps you'll deploy, I can make some suggestions.

Hi again,
Thank you for your answer.
The setup is two FMS 2 servers running on 2 X 64 bit Intel Cpu, 4GB memory in each box. Each box fiber connected to San and the boxes has a very large link to the internet. The plan is to host hundreds of videos in various quality (up to full screen) and users will then stream them to their computers. One of my plan was to have the router which connects the boxes to the internet ping them and see if they are alive and which one give a quicker reply and send the user to that one. I don’t know if this is best practice or if there are some recommendation from Adobe at least I have not found them.
Thank you very much for your help.
Boris.
