11.1.2 High Availability for HSS LCM

Question

Hello All,
Has anyone out there successfully exported an LCM artifact (Native Users) through Shared Services console to the OS file system (<oracle_home>\user_projects\epmsystem1\import_export) when Shared Services is High Available through a load balancer?
My current configuration is two load balanced Shared Services servers using the same HSS repository. Everything works perfectly everywhere except when I try to export anything through LCM from the HSS web console. I have shared out the import_export folder on server 1. And I have edited the oracle_home>\user_projects\epmsystem1\config\FoundationServices1\migration.properties file on the second server to point to the share on the first server. Here is a cut and paste of the migration.properties file from server2.
grouping.size=100
grouping.size_unknown_artifact_count=10000
grouping.group_by_type=Y
report.enabled=Y
report.folder_path=<epm_oracle_instance>/diagnostics/logs/migration/reports
fileSystem.friendlyNames=false
msr.queue.size=200
msr.queue.waittime=60
group.count=10000
double-encoding=true
export.group.count = 30
import.group.count = 10000
filesystem.artifact.path=\\server1\import_export
I perform an export of just the native users to the file system, the export fails stating and I find errors in the log stating the following.

I go and look for the path that it is searching for "/server1/import_export/msr/PKG_34.xml" and find that this file does exist, it was infact created by the export process so I know that it is able to find the correct location, but it then says that it can't find it after the fact. I have tried creating mapped drives and editing the migration.properties file to reference the mapped drive but it gives me the same errors but with the new path. I also tried the below article that I found in support with no result. Please advise, thank you.

Answer 1

it is not possible to implement a kind of HA between two different appliances 3315 and 3395. 
A node in HA can have the 3 persona. 
Suppose Node A (Admin(primary), monitoring(Primary) and PSN). 
Node B(Admin(Secondary), Monitoring(Secondary) and PSN). 
If the Node A is unavailable, you will have to promote manually the Admin role to Primary. 
Although the best way is to have
Node A Admin(Primary), Monitoring(Secondary) and PSN
Node B Admin(Secondary), Monitoring (Primary) and PSN. 
Rate if helpful and Marked As correct if it is correct for the experts.
