Where Load Balancing Takes Place

Hi guys:
I've seen a post by Todd Little.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/tuxedo/overview/ld-balc-in-oracle-tux-atmi-apps-1721269.pdf
In section "Where Load Balancing Takes Place"
It said
Whereas for /WS clients, the tpcall/tpacall/tpconnect just send the service request to WSH and *do not*
*perform load balancing in /WS clients*. WSH calls native client routine to achieve the load balancing
task on behalf of /WS clients. *To achieve the load balancing between /WS clients and WSL servers,*
*multiple WSL access points can be configured by WSNADDR.* This feature can assign the /WS clients
evenly to different WSL servers to balance the work load between WSL/WSH in the system.
I'm very confused about this description. In MP (clustered) mode, Where Load Balancing takes place?? the client side or server side ? I mean, all client send request to master node, and master node dispatch the request to other slave node ??

Hi,
All load balancing (or perhaps better called load optimization) occurs in the native client code where all request routing occurs. So in an MP configuration, the native client (or a handler in the case of workstation, Jolt, or IIOP clients) makes the routing decision which includes load balancing. So the client looks at the load on all the servers across the cluster and makes a routing decision taking into consideration such things as NETLOAD. Note however that before Tuxedo 12c the load information held locally for remote servers (actually queues) was never updated in realtime by the remote machines. Thus the load would increase continuously until the next BB scan at which point the BBL would zero the locally held load information for remote queues. In Tuxedo 12c with TSAM installed, the locally held load information for remote queues IS updated dynamically using a variety of techniques including piggybacking load information in reply messages and periodically sweeping load information to other machines in the cluster. The former works OK, whereas the latter works really well.
Also, the MASTER node in a cluster is basically just the boss for configuration and state changes. It has no special role in request routing or processing. In fact, if the MASTER machine dies, the cluster continues to operate just fine, but configuration and state changes such as starting or stopping servers can't occur until the MASTER is back up or migrated to the BACKUP.

  • Can't get sticky load balancing to work

    I'm really puzzled why sticky LB is not working for a simple case I'm trying. I have two simple JSP's, both registered (see web.xml and ias-web.xml below). I'm using lite session and set distributable to false. Just in case someone can tell by just looking at my session id if it's supposed to be sticky or not, it looks like following -
    GXLiteSessionID-4818869464307751325
    My two JSP's are also attached below, and they're pretty simple. A new session is supposed to be created in login page and clicking on the logout page invalidates the session.
    What I see is that each request (whether login or logout) is randomly sent to any server. For example, if I go to login once, further request to login or logout (whether through refresh or by clicking on the link) is not necessarily sent to the same server.
    Any idea what's missing in my setup? I've tried different types of load balancing (round robin, etc.) so I know that's not it.
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Hi,
    I think it's best to wait for sometime and check the behaviour of sticky load balancing for sometime, the reason being one or more of the following...
    - Although sticky feature ensures that the component is run at a single server, when combined with load balancing and under heavy user loads, the load balancing takes place.
    - If we rule out the previous case, then, the load balancing mechanism, especially, per component based or per server based, sends request by round robin technique initally(around 128 times or so) and then calculates the effeciency of the response time and then follows the per server based or per component based.
    - Meanwhile please ensure that, you have enabled the Sticky LB option under Application using iASAT and please wait for sometime sending requests(probably 130 times) after which it's good to check the mechanism of the sticky bit technique. If it doesn't behaves as it has to then, please let me know and I can help you further on this.
    Regards

  • Best Option (if any) for Load Balancing Distribution Point(s) on Same LAN

    Hey Guys - 
    I've got a simple question this time.  We use SCCM 2012 R2, manage ~800 systems at 3 locations, but perform most work at our main office where this scenario takes place.  Here, we have a single DP on-site which is a separate VM than our Primary
    which is also local.
    Recently, our PC Lab tried running our OSD TS on 16 systems which were each started 1-2 minutes apart.  When run on a single  brand new PC connected via GB network, the OSD TS takes a couple of hours to complete so with 16 it really caused some
    issues.  We had a couple of Programs/Packages/Applications which actually timed out due to the default 120 minute max run time.  We don't usually image 16 at a time, but often do 2-3 at once so are looking to find a solution to speed things up anyways.
    My Question
    What is the best solution / method for implementing any type of load balancing on a single LAN?  I'm not asking for true load balancing, but simply any solution where multiple systems running a TS can pull from more than a single local source if possible.
    We do not use multicasting and from what I've been told it will not be a possibility as it causes havoc on networks so it's out. I know that some clients can share content depending on deployment configuration, but don't know how / if this applies to OSD
    Task Sequences.
    Any suggestions or ideas?  Thanks! 
    Ben K.

    Agree, 16 machines is not a lot. I would normally go for about 2000 machines per DP depending on pkg/img size etc. Whats the size of that rebuild? Image + packages? Do you do a full DL before starting or is it started from WinPE?
    Our BranchCache tools will of course help, regardless of how fast your gig link is since data will be pulled from more sources, but think your issue is more network related? If the images is 5 gig and you add another 5 gig of packges in the sequence a 1Gb/s
    link should pull that 16 * 10GB=160GB in about half an hour. So think dont think you are having 1Gb/s from server to clients.

  • H-REAP and Client Load-Balancing

    I'm told by Cisco that H-REAP does not support client load-balancing.
    We have a situation where we want to deploy LWAPPs using H-REAP into a conference room where training would take place.
    Any suggestions on how to overcome the inevitable slowness these people are going to experience from being unevenly associated with the APs?
    We can't re-write the application so we are looking for a wireless solution.
    Anyone hear about how other organizations have dealt with this type of situation?
    I'll be glad to supply more details if I am not being clear in my description of the problem.
    Thanks in advance. All responses will be rated.
    Paul

    This is the functionality which is missing in H-REAP: Client and Network Load Balancing
    "Radio Resource Management (RRM) load-balances new clients across grouped lightweight access points reporting to each controller. This function is particularly important when many clients converge in one spot (such as a conference room or auditorium) because RRM can automatically force some subscribers to associate with nearby access points, allowing higher throughput for all clients. The controller provides a centralized view of client loads on all access points. This information can be used to influence where new clients attach to the network or to direct existing clients to new access points to improve wireless LAN performance. The result is an even distribution of capacity across an entire wireless network.
    Note: Client load balancing works only for a single controller. It is not operate in a multi-controller environment."
    I suppose if we limit the number of users that can associate with a particular AP then we will achieve some client load-balancing. Though a hard limit on the number of end-users will also lead to situations where some end users will not be allowed any access.

  • Load balancing with JSP

    Anyone and everyone,
    When configuring load balancing with Weblogic clusters, does load
    balancing take effect for all services or just EJB and RMI? Or another
    way of saying the same thing, can I setup weighted load balancing for
    the JSP engines across 2 weblogic servers.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mike

    The load-balancing documentation you read describing the different algorithms only applies to RMI stubs (e.g., EJB clients). Please see http://www.weblogic.com/docs51/cluster/concepts.html#1026091 for a description of how load-balancing/clustering works with servlets/JSPs.
    The short answer is that in using servlet clustering, most people want/need/use in-memory replication for HttpSession objects. In WLS 5.1 (and before), in-memory replication requires one or more proxy servers be set-up in front of the cluster. Typically, most people use something like BigIP to load-balance
    across the proxy servers and let the weblogic plug-in for the proxy server handle the routing to the cluster. The plug-in uses round-robin until an HttpSession is established for a user, then it always tries to route to the server where the user's session is located.
    Hope this helps,
    Robert

  • Webdispatcher SSL load balance server mismatch errors

    We are setting up a webdispatcher to access an Enterprise Portal with multiple instances.  Currently it is working but we are having to overide host mismatches.  in webdispacther log we see
    [Thr 4856] Mon Mar 07 11:38:02 2011
    [Thr 4856] MatchTargetName("aaa.mycompany.com", "CN=bbb.mycompany.com, OU=xxx, O=ooo, L=ccc, SP=sss, C=US") FAILS
    [Thr 4856] SSL NI-sock: local=##.21.13.137:50746 peer=##.21.13.131:51001
    [Thr 4856] <<- ERROR: SapSSLSessionStart(sssl_hdl=0000000008565100)==SSSLERR_SERVER_CERT_MISMATCH
    The Portal instances are on
    aaa.mycompany.com
    bbb.mycompany.com
    Currently have a CA approved certificate for each server installed in the portal.  Dispatcher on aaa uses aaa cert, dispatcher on bbb uses bbb cert.
    Message server is on aaa, but it will load balance and place you on either instance.
    have following related parameters
    wdisp/ssl_encrypt = 2
    wdisp/ssl_auth = 2
    wdisp/ssl_cred = C:\usr\sap\XXX\W00\sec\XXX.pse
    wdisp/ssl_certhost = aaa.mycompany.com
    wdisp/ssl_ignore_host_mismatch = TRUE
    C:\usr\sap\XXX\W00\sec\XXX.pse has ssl cert of both aaa and bbb servers.
    All seems to be working, as users are load balancing.  They are not getting certificate mismatches in their browser anymore.  We are getting the SSSLERR_SERVER_CERT_MISMATCH errors, but the messages do not seem to cause an issue since we have wdisp/ssl_ignore_host_mismatch set.
    Can we eliminate those mismatch errors instead of masking the problem with wdisp/ssl_ignore_host_mismatch?
    Should each portal instance have their own ssl cert, or is there a way to use one cert such as the aaa.mycompany.com cert on each portal instance?  It seems like that might eliminate the mismatch errors.  However, what happens when you go directly to the bbb.mycompany.com portal instance? there is a certificate error if you specify aaa's and you go to bbb.  I was wondering if the wdisp/ssl_auth and wdisp/ssl_certhost are valid in the portal system so that each server uses the aaa server and certificate.  I could not tell if this parameter is valid for java-only portal systems.
    Thanks for your help.
    Edited by: Fett Patrick on Mar 7, 2011 8:35 PM

    Thank you Martin for your prompt reply.  Can you clarify please, can we use the wdisp/ssl_certhost parameter in the instance profiles of the portal instances?  I wasn't sure if that is only valid for webdispatchers or can also be used in abap/java systems?
    We orginally had the aaa server certificate listed for each dispatcher in the portal under ssl provider runtime server identity.  That caused a browser "certificate error" when accessing the bbb server.  So we then installed an ssl certificate for bbb for its dispatcher.  We could then go to either server with no browser "certificate mismatch" error.
    Then when we added the webdispatcher, we started getting the server mismatch errors at the webdispatcher level.  If the wdisp/ssl_certhost can be used in the portal profiles, then that would hopefully resolve direct access or via web dispatcher aceess mismatches.  I.E. only the aaa ssl certificate would be used and parameters would be set at both the webdispatcher and portal profiles
    Thanks, Pat.

  • What is load balancer in fms cluster and how to configure it and testing fms clustering

    Hey guys,
                I am new to fms and clustering the fms server in origin-edge mode.But i am confused actually what is load balancer and how to configure it .
    After configuring , how to test and confirm that fms clustering is working.Is there any one can help me, plz....................
                                                                                                   thanks in Advance........

    Flash Media Server does not come bundled with a load balancer.  In theory, one deploys FMS in an edge/origin configuration like this
    1 Origin ----> N Edges ------> Customer Traffic
    The idea here is that N edges shoulder the load for most customers with a single origin coordinating resources like VOD content or script access.  The issue that remains is "how do I spread customers over the N edges" and that's where load balancing comes in.  Most customers use a prepackaged load balancing solution - as an Adobe staffer I can't recommend any of them over the other, but you should be able to get some recommendations here along with just googling for it.  The short answer contained here though is, you're going to have to find one outside of FMS if that's needed for your setup.

  • Load balancer vs. proxy plug-in

  • Hardware or Software Load Balancer

    Hi all,
    We're looking to have two OHS servers at the top layer which we then want to load balance using a DNS Alias. Does anyone have any recommendations or useful reading materials on choosing between software and hardware load balancers? I've seen and maintained Hyperion implementations that successfully using both, but would like to understand the pros/cons of each approach.
    Also, does anyone know of any recommendations from Oracle on which approach with Hyperion / configuration recommendations when using Load balancers? The EPM High Availability guide 11.1.2.1 doesn't say much about load balancers sitting above the OHS layer
    Thanks
    Nick

    Hi Nick,
    The big problem with round-robin DNS is if one of your OHS nodes goes down every other user will head a bad URL. A hardware load balancer when setup properly will have much more intelligence and can sense if a site is down and automatically send all requests to the online node. Higher end hardware load balancers usually offer features like SSL Offloading and content compression.
    This being said there are real costs for hardware load balancer which can run into the 10's of thousands of dollars if not hundreds of thousands of dollars.
    You may also want to review the content available at: http://www.loadbalancing.org/
    If you are looking for something in between round-robin DNS and a true hardware load balancer take a look at Linux LVS at: http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ -- this does require a bit of linux knowledge.

  • How to configure software load balancer for R12.1.3

    Dear All,
    I need to configure software load-balancer on application tiers and i need to know if its possible to have a software load-balancer in place of hardware load balancer if i need to route the load on two application nodes.
    Thanks !

    As we do not certify, nor support 3rd party loadbalancers we can not confirm that the Piranha loadbalancer will perform as expected with EBS. The basic minimum requirements or loadbalaning is that it has death detection, and session / cookie persistence We also typically require that a hardware loadbalancer is used. Internally we use F5 loadbalancers, and Cisco ACE.
    What are the limitations of a software load balancer compared to hardware ? As mentioned above, your software balancer should has the capability of "death detection, and session/cookie persistence" -- More details can be found in (Implementing Load Balancing On Oracle E-Business Suite - Documentation For Specific Load Balancer Hardware [ID 727171.1]).
    Oracle Web Cache can be used as a software load balancer (which is an Oracle product), but Oracle recommends you do not use it in production instances.
    Thanks,
    Hussein

  • Where does the processing take place when using a remote front panel?

    Hi,
    I am considering upgrading my LabView software from 6i to 6.1 for the new "two click" remote front panel feature. I have already seen a demo of this feature but have just a few questions before I get the upgrade:
    My setup consists of several pieces of equipment connected to Labview via GPIB, to aid in the evaluation of a new microchip.
    1. I wish to grant control of the setup to anyone with a web browser, Is the remote monitoring feature compatible with both Netscape and IE?
    2. The VI which controls the setup is currently located on the PC beside my setup. When I embed a VI in a remote front panel, where does the processing take place, is the local VI still controlling the setup? and
    the remote panel just sending and receiving data from the local VI.
    Thanks, Troy

    The computer which we refer to as the server, the one with the GPIB card
    in your case, will execute as it does now. In fact, its window will
    even be open. The remote client computer, the one with the web browser
    will be running the runtime engine and processing user events, value
    change and property/method events from the server. So in reality, both
    computers will be sharing the load a bit. This allows for very small
    packets to be sent between the computers. It is in fact quite similar
    to publishing the data between the computers using datasocket.
    One thing to keep in mind. Standard LV includes a license for one
    connection. If you want to allow for multiple web browsers to view at
    the same time, additional licenses are available. Also, only one user,
    remote or server may be in control of the panel at a time. That means
    that if you want to be able to operate the panel, changing kn
    obs or
    flipping switches, the others will become viewers only until you give up
    control. Hopefully this isn't a surprise, but I thought you might want

  • Where do rall back segments take place if db has no undo tablespace?

    As far as I understand sort operations take place in temp tablespace and rall back in undo table space.
    Suppose we have just 2 tablespace(system and sysaux). Where are sorting and ralling back located?

    It will use an old style rollback segment in the system tablespace.
    Most disk sorts will go there too, although some temporary segments might be created in sysaux too, depending on the operation being performed, and the user performing it.

  • Who takes care of load balancing work in weblogic cluster ?

    Hi Folks,
    How load balancing is handled internally by weblogic cluster ? Does Admin server takes care of cluster load balancing ? According to me Admin has nothing to do with load balancing in cluster . Manage server continue to run even when Admin server is down.
    I am not looking for explanation about different load balancing algorithm. I am interested in who executes those algorithms in weblogic cluster and how .
    Cheers

  • Place where batch determination should take place.

    Hi
    Please suggest where should the batch determination take place . It should be done outside a Bapi(in my case 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE') or first calculated and then passed to this bapi. Actuaaly i am facing a issue in which when multiple sales order are run simulataneously they pick the batch with zero quantity. What has been concluded is it might be a Locking issue. <removed_by_moderator>

  • May I know how data load takes place in essbase

    Hi all,
    Since I am new to hyperion i need to know some details about Essbase.Last month we faced one issue.Whenever a data load takes place it clears the previous years data and loads only loads the current years data.May i know the reason for this.
    And also i want to know how the data load takes place in Essbase.
    With thanks and regards,
    babu

    I m okay with above statements ... Now i am going to add something else..
    Above mentioned in how many ways we can load the data from different files..now what am i trying to say is we can also use "Calc script" to load the data...
    You know how?
    thru "Datacopy" we can load the data value(s) into another member(s)..You can see in session dialogue box while running the Calc script (Which it contains the "Datacopy") that will show data load in progress..
    And also make sure that every time you won't do copy the data from SQL,Excel..etc ... it may be you can have the situation to copy the data from one server to another server...think in that way will be another good advantage for you..
    i hope you understand this....
