Load balancing from the BI portal

Hi everybody,
We have a BW system with two application servers.
When we use BEx, the load balancing leads the user to the application server that is used less.
When we use the portal, everything goes over the central server.
Does anybody know how we can set up load balancing from the BI portal ?
Kind regards,
Marc van Eijndt

The web dispatcher for your portal should do the load balancing... usually the scenario is the other way round - BEX tends to use the server irrespective of its load and Portal will hit the load balancer and hence lead to better performance ....

Using the network load balancing from the nodes itself

I have installed a 2 node Sun Cluster 3.2, configured a shared ip resource and attached to it a scalable network aware resource working on the two nodes. I have crashed the process on one of the node in such a way that the cluster could not restart it again
In this status I tried to open a connection from another server and the load balancer always sent the traffic to the node that was up which is as expected...
If I try to open a connection from the node on which the process is failed then I get a connection refused meaning that the load balancer is not working in this circumstance.
Is this a bug/ a mis-configuration/ or just an inherent cluster problem.
Is there a solution to this issue?
Regards
Daniel

To answer your first question, no, there isn't anything you can do.
Here is what my colleague suggested while I was away:
Zone-clusters scalable services still require shared-IP zones, which means requests from one app to another would still bounce back due to loopback. Probably wouldn't help here.
They could isolate the services that must talk to other services into their own failover group on exclusive-IP zones. Other services can be setup as originally planned. But maybe there are too many such "dependent services" for this to be useful. Also, each failover service must have its own IP address.
Finally, can these web services be configured so that it tries multiple addresses. In that case, if the shared address foo for service X bounces back (due to X having crashed on the local node), the app itself would retry with address bar for service X? This allows for uniform configuration across all services, namely:
    - try shared address
    - try node 1's own address (either public or clusternode1-priv)
    - try node 2's own address
You can fine tune it so that configurations on node 1 only use node 2's address as backup, and vice versa. I don't know if that is any help.
As for your second question, the answer is that Solaris Container Clusters allow for consolidation and isolation of clusters onto a single set of nodes. Normal containers don't really allow you to consolidate complete clusters in quite the same way. See http://www.sun.com/offers/details/820-7351.html for more.

Web Dispatcher not doing the load balancing on the portal

Hi Experts
I am having a production issue where the SAP web dispatcher is not doing the load balancing on the portal.
We have ESS/MSS portal with 1 Message server and 2 Application servers. The Web dispatcher is installed on the message server itself. Here is my Web disp profile file

In my Web dispatcher Admin page, I see all the three application servers, however the requests are going to only 1 App server. We are using ENd to End SSL configuration for the web dispatcher.
We also have a reverse proxy in the landscape and reverse proxy is forwarding all the requests to the Web dispatcher. In Web disp Admin page>Dispatching Module>SSL End to END dispatching, I see only ONE table entry in the dispatching table and it is our Reverse Proxy.
As all the requests are coming from only one source (Reverse proxy), it seems to me that the sap web dispatcher is forwarding those to the same Application server every time.
Can anyone please advise ?
I also tried to configure logon group in NWA, the web dispatcher is detecting the logon group and all the app servers in the logon group. It still not doing the load balancing.
I would greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks
Viny

Vincent, can you please elaborate more ? Is the web dispatcher not able to recognize stateful and stateless application requests ?
I saw that the procedure for configuring SSL Termination on Web dispatcher is long and complicated and looks like SAP web dispatcher needs to have SSL certificate of its own. As we have no ABAP servers and only Java servers, I can not even create the PSEs using STRUST (as described in SAP help -http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/48/99c388d7c46bb9e10000000a42189d/frameset.htm
We already have SSL certificates for Java App servers.
I suppose there should be a way for web dispatcher to identify the incoming requests and forward to appropriate application servers.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks
Viny

Load balancing in the process chains

HI friends
I have 6 subchains in 1 metachain . we are facing a problem where we have to 2 servers . but when we run the process chains they are occuping all the DIA process in only one server . the other server is empty . so is there a way that we can do the load balancing in the process chains . so that the process chains can occupy all the resources in both servers than only one . please do reply . this is very important . thankyou for all your replies .
*Points will be rewarded *.

Hi,
check this out: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes/sdn_oss_bc_ccm/~form/handler
additionally some information.
You can specify a server on which the chain will run, but this is not really load balancing. Load balancing must be set up by a basis person.

MPLS/VPN network load balancing in the core

Hi,
I've an issue about cef based load-balancing in the MPLS core in MPLS/VPN environment. If you consider flow-based load balancing, the path (out interface) will be chosen based on source-destination IP address. What about in MPLS/VPN environment? The hash will be based on PE router src-dst loopback addresses, or vrf packet src-dst in P and PE router? The topology would be:
CE---PE===P===PE---CE
I'm interested in load balancing efficiency if I duplicate the link between P and PE routers.
Thank you for your help!
Gabor

Hi,
On the PE router you could set different types and 2 levels of load-balancing.
For instance, in case of a DUAL-homed site, subnet A prefix for VPN A could be advertised in the VPN by PE1 or PE2.
PE1 receives this prefix via eBGP session from CE1 and keep this route as best due to external state.
PE2 receives this prefix via eBGP session from CE2 and keep this route as best due to external state.
                             eBGP
                     PE1 ---------CE1
PE3----------P1                          Subnet A
                     PE2----------CE2 /
                            eBGP
Therefore from PE3 point of view, 2 routes are available assuming that IGP metric for PE3/PE1 is equal to PE3/PE2.
The a 1rst level of load-sharing can be achieve thanks to the maximum-paths ibgp number command.
2 MP-BGP routes are received on PE3:
PE3->PE1->CE1->subnet A
PE3->PE2->CE2->subnet A
To use both routes you must set the number at 2 at least : maximum-paths ibgp 2
But gess what, in the real world an MPLS backbone hardly garantee an equal IGP cost between 2 Egress PE for a given prefix.
So it is often necessary to ignore the IGP metric by adding the "unequal-cost" keyword: maximum-paths unequal-cost ibgp 2
By default the load-balancing is called "per-session": source and destination addresses are considered to choose the path and the outgoing interface avoiding reordering the packets on the target site. Overwise it is possible to use "per-packet" load-balancing.
Then a 2nd load-sharing level can occur.
For instance:
         __P1__PE1__CE1
PE3           \/                   Subnet A
        \ __P2__PE2__CE2
There is still 2 MP-BGP paths :
PE3->P1->PE1->CE1->subnet A
PE3->P1->PE2->CE2->subnet A
But this time for 2 MP-BGP paths 4 IGP path are available:
PE3->P1->PE1->CE1->subnet A
PE3->P1->PE2->CE2->subnet A
PE3->P2->PE1->CE1->subnet A
PE3->P2->PE2->CE2->subnet A
For a load-balancing to be active between those 4 paths, they must exist in the routing table thanks to the "maximum-path 4 "command in the IGP (ex OSPF) process.
Therefore if those 4 paths are equal-cost IGP paths then a 2nd level load-balancing is achieved. the default behabior is the same source destination mechanism to selected the "per-session" path as mentionned before.
On an LSP each LSR could use this feature.

Load-balancing in the same IP subnet

Can I use load-balancing in the same IP subnet? I have the servers and client in the same IP subnet. I'd like to load-balance client traffic to server traffic. I also need to load balance traffic between servers. Is possible to configure it only in one VLAN?
For example:
CSS:
interface 4/2
circuit VLAN1
ip address 10.0.0.10 255.255.255.0
service s1
ip address 10.0.0.101
active
service s2
ip address 10.0.0.102
active
service s3
ip address 10.0.0.103
active
service s4
ip address 10.0.0.104
active
owner test
content client
vip address 10.0.0.3
add service s1
add service s2
active
content servers
vip address 10.0.0.4
add service s3
add service s4
active
Cat6500:
interface FastEthernet4/1 - clients
no ip address
switchport
switchport mode access
spanning-tree portfast
interface FastEthernet4/2 - servers
no ip address
switchport
switchport mode access
spanning-tree portfast
interface FastEthernet4/3 - CSS
no ip address
switchport
switchport mode access
spanning-tree portfast
interface Vlan1
ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
ip policy route-map pokus
access-list 101 permit tcp any eq 80 any
route-map pokus permit 10
match ip address 101
set ip next-hop 10.0.0.10
Thank you

yes, it's possible - use trunk with two VLANs (slide 9). or you can use 'transparent' mode (slide 11 - your attachment).
answer to your question (I have the problem to understand why there are two links with the same VLAN on the picture):
on the switch are two port interfaces in *switchport* mode (not trunk). now is it clearly?
result:
both methods (bridge mode with two vlans, or transparent bridge mode) use two vlans. it's on you, which type is for you preferred.
my recommendation is - use first method - one link to CSS with trunk configured in bridge mode (one ip subnet, two vlans, default gw for servers isn't css, but parent router)

Load balancing by the proxy plugin

Has anyone encountered this before:
I have a cluster of two WLS 5.1 servers, hosting servlets that serve web
requests. The requests are proxied through a web server ( I have tried
Weblogic, Apache as well as IIS). I also have a tool that simulates
concurrent web requests and fires them to the proxy server.
As per documentation, as the load balancing while proxying requests to
servlets is round robin, I expect that the requests are uniformly
distributed across the two weblogic servers. But what I see is a bit
different. In one case I fired 15 requests and found that 11 went to first
server and 4 went to the other.
Second time when I fired again 2 of them went to the first server and 13 to
the second one. I would expect that around half of the total requests
should be routed to each server everytime so that there is a proper load
balancing done by the proxy. I have not changed any configuration related
to the default load balancing algorithm. So I expect it is round-robin.
Has anyone encountered this before ? This happens to me irrespective of
which proxy server I use (i.e which proxy plugin I use). Is there some
other configuration required and I am missing something or is there some
inherent problem with the load balancing of the proxy plugins. Any info
would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

MEASURING FORCE ON BALANCE USING AN ELECTRONIC BALANCE FROM THE SERIAL PORT

Hi,
I am trying to measure FORCE using an electronic BALANCE from the serial port. My measurements are strange! The BALANCE sometimes give ZERO reading! Is it because of the sample rate, baud rate etc? I have attached the readings concerned.
Attachments:
databalance.doc ‏144 KB

I think your problem is due to the way you read the weight :
1/ask the balance to send the data
2/oversee the byte number on the serial port until it is constant
3/read the bytes received
4/convert to number
During step 2, you compare the bytes at serial port with the previous value. So far, you have been very lucky to be able to read something : the answer here is always ZERO since the readings occur BEFORE the balance has been able to send anything! means that your loop stops immediately (if you are not convinced, jujst add an indicator to display the loop index. However, since you added a wait (0.8 s), when going to step 3, the balance has had some time to send something. Here, you should not have read again the number of bytes at serial port, but that unwillingly corrects the previous error and you can read most of the received data...
You should modify completely your algorithm. Usually, a balance send the weight as a string with some terminator (RC or LF). Accordingly, the algorithm should be :
1/ask the balance to send the data
2/read the serial port, concatenating the received chars until a terminator char is received or a timeout has occured
3/convert to number

How to load images from the library (png)?

This is my first time using the forum so sorry if it's not professionally set up. I am trying to make an inventory system and I'm trying to find a way to have a Slot (MovieClip) holding a child of probably another MovieClip witch will display the icon according to whatever is in that Slot... As soon as I figure out how to have a MovieClip display an image and then change that image by loading it from the library, I can finish the rest! So let me try to demonstrate:
(Note: This is not actual code, it's just a demonstration of what I'm trying to accomplish)
Item1 = Name: "HP Potion", Icon: "HP_Potion.png"
Item2 = Name: "MP Potion", Icon: "MP_Potion.png"
Item3 = Name: "Sword", Icon: "Sword.png"
Item4 = Name: "Shield", Icon: "Shield.png"
Slot1.nameField.text = Item1.Name //HP Potion
Slot1.mc_img = Item1.Icon//HP_Potion.png
~Ok so what I am trying to do is see if there is a way to change what image the MovieClip displays, just by code. I don't want to put each individual picture in a frame on the MovieClip's timeline
Sorry about not having any code, I've been working on it for a few hours, and I can't find anything online that doesn't say put it in a timeline.
If you know how to do what I'm asking with a spritesheet instead of individual images, that's fine too! I'll just have to join all the images together

Alright so let's get down to buisness... what I'm asking, is it impossible to make it simple? I can't just change the bitmap of the MovieClip. If you open up the MovieClip and view it's timeline, the image is a bitmap file withing that MovieClip so if you're able to manipulate other things of a MovieClip, you should be able to manipulate that too right? Such as "MovieClip.Bitmap" (I know that's not the actual property but could it be done?).
