IIS failover Cluster
in [IIS]
|
From: CANews on 6 May 2010 18:22 Hi I am looking setting up failover cluster for our IIS7 web sites. These sites rely on host headers. An associate doesnt think windows failover cluster services will handle the host headers ? Would that be an issue and is there a good MS reference on such Many regards Touie

From: CANews on 6 May 2010 21:15 Well No, as long as it provides total failover.

It's not exactly the same as failover, but it will give you the same benefit in the event that a server fails. It's also easier to scale out in the event that your site becomes more busy - just add more web servers into the cluster and ensure that you have sufficient to manage the load if one fails (i.e. N+1 redundancy). -- Chris M. > "Chris M"<nobody(a)nowhere.special> wrote in message > news:hrvlt6$a1a$1(a)speranza.aioe.org... >> On 06/05/2010 23:22, CANews wrote: >>> Hi >>> I am looking setting up failover cluster for our IIS7 web sites.
