Portal Profile Server Recovery Question
Hi All,
I am currently implementing/rolling out to production 2x portal gateways
and 2x portal servers(with 1 Master profile ldap on one of the portal servers).
I am currently using iPlanet portal version iPS3.0sp3a.
What I would like to know is: How are other clients/companies configuring a
2x gateway with 2x portal server design
What do other clients/companies do when the 1 master profile ldap or master profile
server dies? The reason why I ask is because the master profile ldap is a single
point of failure.
Question: Are other companies creating a 2nd profile ldap that is dormant on the 2nd
portal server? And if the Master profile server dies, then you can quickly restore/
configure the 2nd portal server to be the new master profile server?
I am just curious what other companies are doing to mitigate a potential disaster with
the master profile ldap.
Note: I know that iPSv3.0sp4 is due out soon, but I will be moving to production real
soon and I need to have some sort of a disaster plan in place.
Any suggestions and/or comments is most appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
