Windows Event Collector - Built-in options for load balancing and high availability ?

Hello,
I have a working collector. config is source initiated, and pushed by GPO.
I would like to deploy a second collector for high availability and load balancing. What are the available options ? I have not found any guidance on TechNet articles.
As a low cost option, is it fine to simply start using DNS round-robin with a common alias for both servers pushed as a collector name through GPO ?
In my GPO Policy, if I individually declare both servers, events are forwarded twice, once for each server. Indeed it does cover high availability, but not really optimized.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
>>As a low cost option, is it fine to simply start using DNS round-robin with a common alias for both servers pushed as a collector name through GPO ?
Based on the description, we can utilize DNS round robin to distribute workloads and increase fault tolerance. By default, DNS uses round robin to rotate the order of RR data returned in query answers where multiple RRs of the same type exist for a queried
DNS domain name. This feature provides a simple method for load balancing client use of Web servers and other frequently queried multihomed computers. Besides, by default, DNS will perform round-robin rotation for all RR types.
Regarding DNS round robin, the following article can be referred to for more information.

For a true load balancing and high-availability OHS, OPMN, and mod_oc4j

i have read this link of Enabling Clustering on oc4j9.0.4 standalone app server
http://www.oracle.com/technology/docs/tech/java/oc4j/htdocs/getstart.htm#1015479
To test the clustering, start up the load balancer by executing "java -jar loadbalancer.jar".
C:\OC4J_EXTENDED\j2ee\home>java -jar loadbalancer.jar
In a future release of Oracle Application Server, loadbalancer.jar will be
desupported. Because of this, we strongly suggest that you discontinue your use
of loadbalancer.jar in this release. Under high loads, loadbalancer.jar may not
function properly. For a true load balancing and high-availability solution,
please move to use OHS, OPMN, and mod_OC4J. For more information, please see

Load balancing and High Availability topology

Our Forms 6i client-server application currently runs on Citrix farm of 20 Windows 2000 boxes (IBM Blade Servers 2 CPU and 2 Gig Memory).
Application supports 2000 users.
We are moving to AS 10g r2, forms 10g and the goal is to use same hardware, 20 Windows boxes (or less), for intranet web deployment.
What will be our best choices for application Load balancing and High Availability?
Hardware load balancer, Web Cache, mod-oc4j? Combinations?
Any suggestions, best practices, your experience?

Gerd, I understand, that you are running 10g web forms through the browser, but using Citrix for deployment. This means that in addition to Application Server and Forms runtime sessions, it will be separate browser session opened for each user. What the advantage of this configuration?
Michael, we are aware, that Citrix is not supported by Oracle as a deployment platform. That only means that prior contacting Oracle Support we have to reproduce the problem in standard environment. It was never been a problem to reproduce problem :) We were using Citrix as a deployment platform for Forms 6i client/server for 4 years, but now we are forced to upgrade to 10g.
We are familiar with various Load balancing options available. The question is which option is the most "workable" in our case.

Any other options for load balancing

hello everyone,
i have been unsuccessful to implement load balancing effectively. have you come across any such problems with load balancing not working as expected? are there any othner options to implement load balancing?
thank you in advance

Adding second 5508 Wireless Controller, how to best configure for load balancing and redundancy?

We recently purchased a second 5508 wireless controller (both licensed for 100+ AP's). What is the easiest way to configure and add the second controller so I can split the load between the 2 controllers and provide failover capability? I do not want to run in an active/standby mode since that will effectively cut our AP capacity by half even with both controllers running.
Should I just manually configure the new controller (long and drawn out process to configure all the parameters), backup the current controller configuration and import to the second controller (then change the ip address) or is their an easier way to cause the two controllers to synchronize the configurations?
We are currently running 7.0.240.0 on our active controller and I would rather not upgrade it until we get the new controller online so I can have less downtime and fail AP's between controllers.
What can you recommend?
Jim

I'm assuming then, when I update the software on the controllers I won't be able to choose which controller is primary for an AP anymore and will lose access to the 100 AP licenses (and the capability to have 100 AP's registered, 100 licenses on each Controller).
Read the Deployment Guide. It should mention that you can choose which controller is the "primary" and which one is the "secondary".
If I'm not concerned about quick failover can I still assign a primary and secondary controller for each AP and utilize all 200 AP licenses that are split between the 2 controllers?
You sure can. But this "old school" method is a very expensive method. Why? Because this means that you have two controllers with similar AP licenses. The newer AP SSO means one controller has a full license and the other has only an HA SSO license, which is a lot cheaper.

Windows 8/8.1 - No Option for "Install Updates and Shut Down"

We’ve got a handful of Windows 8 workstations and I’ve noticed that users don’t get the “Install Updates and Shut Down” option when they shut their systems down. Nor do they get the updates icon in the notification area.
Instead, all they get is the following message at the logon screen:
There is no way I can expect my users to do this.
I need to ensure that the updates are installed when the user shuts down.
There must be a way of configuring Group Policy to allow Windows 8 workstations to prompt to install updates when the user shuts down.
I cannot implement an option whereby updates are installed automatically without the user being aware. If updates start installing automatically then there is the potential for loss of work if a user is away from their desk for a long period of time and
their system just restarts to complete the installation.
Our current group policy settings are below. This works fine for the Windows 7 workstations.
I presume others have experienced this? Can anyone offer any guidance?
Thanks
Current Group policy settings:-
Client Computers Policy:-
Configure Automatic Updating – 3 – Auto download and notify for install
I don't work for Microsoft - I just use their products.

I am sorry but this is NOT an answer.
You're correct. It's not. Microsoft has some overzealous contractors who seem to think any response is "the answer". I've unmarked the post, because, in fact, it was merely "additional information" which may or may not have addressed the
original issue.
I, like the original poster, have several computers that do NOT offer 'Install Updates' in any of the power menus and definitely do NOT install the updates during either a restart or a shutdown.
Now *THAT* is an entirely *DIFFERENT* situation than what the Original Poster has offered here, so the appropriate thing for you to do is to start a NEW THREAD and fully describe the environment and symptoms of the problem and what you've done (if anything)
to try to identify, isolate, or remediate the undesirable behavior.
The PCs I have are Windows 8.1 installed from a partner copy of Windows 8 and upgraded.
I'm intrigued with this "partner copy of Windows 8" thing. Have you asked "the partner" what they customized in the installation image before you actually installed the product???
Can someone please offer a SOLUTION as opposed to parroting what SHOULD happen.
Not until you provide us with some actionable information. :-)

CF8/JRun4 Cluster for Load Balancing

Does anyone have an example of how to set up a CF8/JRun4
cluster for load balancing?
I have three servers:
x004 - Linux - Apache2 (10.0.0.54,10.1.0.54)
x020 - Linux - JRun4/CF8 (10.0.0.70,10.1.0.70)
x021 - Linux - JRun4/CF8 (10.0.0.71,10.1.0.71)
Every server in our network has two network cards. One
network card is attached to 10.0.x.x which has a gateway to the
internet and runs at 100Mbps and is firewalled, and the other is
attached to 10.1.x.x which runs at 1Gbps and is internal with no
gateway. I'm trying to set it up so web traffic arrives on
10.0.0.54 into Apache and mod_jrun20 bootstraps a cluster named
STST using 10.1.0.54 which consists of STST_x020 coldfusion server
running on x020 and STST_x021 running on x021. I want the
communications between JRun4 on x020 and x021 to occur on the
10.1.x.x network and eventhough JRun and ColdFusion will only use
the 10.1.x.x network I still need the 10.0.x.x network card
attached for other purposes which require a gateway. I have
installed JRun4/CF8 about 10 times already and it seems I have no
control over what network JRun4 clusters on... sometimes it will
communicate on one, sometimes the other and without being able to
set which network is being used there always seems to be "network
error" on at least one of the two CF8 servers. I was able to get
everything working fine by disabling the network cards on the
10.0.x.x network and re-installing everything... but as soon as I
added the network cards back the whole thing was broken again.
How is this supposed to work? Most of the examples are either
no clustering or clustering on the same machine with Apache running
on the same box... I don't see any clustering across machines
examples.
How do I install a connector on a web server which doesn't
have JRun on it and get wsconfig to connect to a multi-machine
cluster when wsconfig only accepts a single IP address as a host
and the cluster is not listed?
How do I get JRun to bind to a specific network card?
Does this work if I choose a J2EE server other than JRun?
Any help anyone can provide is greatly appreciated. I'm
getting close to giving up which means staying on the non-clustered
environment and figuring out how we can deal with scalability by
switching to something else.

The article at
http://www.adobe.com/go/1e8e9170
is specific to configuring two or more cluster nodes that reside on
separate networks, e.g. 10.0.1.0/24 and 10.0.2.0/24. (The article
doesn't state it, but you can only use unicast peers if your
cluster nodes host a single instance of JRun or multiple instances
of JRun in the same cluster domain. When performing unicast
discovery, JRun looks for all Jini groups and not just the cluster
group.)
Anyhow, that's not your problem. The simplest solution is you
haven't enabled the jrun.servlet.jrpp.JRunProxyService service. I'm
most familiar with the Windows version of JRun, but I'm assuming
the directory structure is similar across platforms. In
<jrun_root>/servers/<name>/SERVER-INF/jrun.xml, set the
deactivated attribute of the jrun.servlet.jrpp.JRunProxyService
service to false and restart JRun. You should now see JRun
listening on the appropriate port. (The default for the first
manually created instance is 51000.) You can limit the proxy
service to a single interface using the interface attribute.
If you have enabled the proxy service, verify your security
settings in <jrun_root>/lib/security.properties. It's usually
best to limit access to specific hosts. Comment out the
jrun.subnet.restriction parameter and set the jrun.trusted.hosts to
the IP address of your web server, e.g. 10.1.0.54.
Forcing all JRun processes/services to listen on a single
interface isn't difficult, but it does require modifying quite a
few configuration files by hand. If you need assistance with that,
I can elaborate.
Configuring the JRun module under Apache is pretty
straightforward. If you're not using virtual hosts, it's very
simple. If you are using virtual hosts, it's still simple, but your
JRun configuration can be virtual host-specific.
On your Apache server, you'll want to create a directory
structure for the JRun module. I'll assume
/opt/jrun/lib/wsconfig/1, but you can use anything you want. Once
the directory structure is created, extract the appropriate JRun
module from wsconfig.jar to the new directory. You're most likely
interested in the Apache 2.0 module,
wsconfig.jar/connectors/apache/intel-linux/prebuilt/mod_jrun20.so.
Let's assume you've extracted the module to
/opt/jrun/lib/wsconfig/1/mod_jrun20.so. Your Apache service account
should have read, write, and execute permissions on the
/opt/jrun/lib/wsconfig/1 directory.
The JRun module configuration is normally appended to your
current httpd.conf file by wsconfig. Here's a sample configuration:
LoadModule jrun_module
"/opt/jrun/lib/wsconfig/1/mod_jrun20.so"
<IfModule mod_jrun20.c>
JRunConfig Verbose false
JRunConfig Apialloc false
JRunConfig Ssl false
JRunConfig Ignoresuffixmap false
JRunConfig Serverstore
"/opt/jrun/lib/wsconfig/1/jrunserver.store"
JRunConfig Bootstrap 10.1.0.70:51000
#JRunConfig Errorurl <optionally redirect to this URL on
errors>
#JRunConfig ProxyRetryInterval 600
#JRunConfig ConnectTimeout 30
#JRunConfig RecvTimeout 30
#JRunConfig SendTimeout 30
AddHandler jrun-handler .jsp .jws .cfm .cfml .cfc .cfr
.cfswf
</IfModule>
You may also want to update your DirectoryIndex directive
with an appropriate index page, e.g. index.cfm.
After the first request to a page handled by the JRun module
is received, the module will query the boostrap server,
10.1.0.70:51000, for a list of cluster peers. If you've configured
your cluster correctly, a line similar to following will be written
to /opt/jrun/lib/wsconfig/1/jrunserver.store:
proxyservers=10.1.0.70:51000;10.1.0.71:51000
You can create/edit this file manually as well.
Unfortunately, the bootstrap option only accepts one server. If
your bootstrap server is down, the JRun module will use the values
in jrunserver.store directly, if the file exists.
Here's a complete list of JRun module options:
metrics *
debugger *
ssl *
verbose
traceflags
serverstore
bootstrap
errorurl
apialloc
ignoresuffixmap
proxyretryinterval
connecttimeout
recvtimeout
sendtimeout
sslcalist
Options flagged with an asterisk can only be configured at
the Apache server level. All other options can be configured at the
server level and/or the virtual host level. The usage of these
options is in the JRun documentation, and the JRun module source
code is included in wsconfig.jar. Keep in mind that versions of the
JRun module shipped prior to ColdFusion 8 were coded to assign the
connecttimeout and sendtimeout options to the socket connection
timeout. Whichever option appeared last in your configuration ended
up as the final value. This has been fixed in ColdFusion 8 and
presumably the next release of the JRun updater.
I think that's a good start. If you need more information or
can't find what you need in the JRun or ColdFusion documentation,
let me know.
If you're looking for resiliency, I highly recommend
expanding your configuration to include a second web server and a
hardware load-balancer (preferably one that supports redudancy via
multiple paths and devices, e.g. devices from Cisco, F5, or Foundry
Networks). Often, however, running Apache on the ColdFusion
server(s) provides adequate performance, and round-robin DNS
records coupled with the ability to update DNS quickly in the event
of a failure may be all you need for load-balancing and
failover.

Round robin DNS for load balancing between multiple network adapters (Xserve)

I'm attempting to use 'round robin' DNS to load balance between the two ethernet adapters of an Xserve.
Both ethernet adapters are connected to the same LAN and have static IP addresses of 192.168.2.250 and 192.168.2.251.
The DNS zone for the server's local domain/host (macserver.private) has a machine record with both IP addresses (set up in the Lion Server UI).
Having read up on round robin DNS, I would have expected DNS requests for 'macserver.private' to be answered with the two IP addresses ordered at random, achiving my aim of requests being served at random via each ethernet adapter.
However this doesn't seem to be the case. Doing a 'nslookup' from any of the network clients results in the two IP addresses being listed in the same order everytime. And pinging 'macserver.private' only ever results in a response from the same address.
Does anyone know why this is the case? Does Lion Server use a non-standard DNS configuration? Are there any additional settings I need to configure in Lion's DNS server to make adopt a round robin approach to responding to requests?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Be careful what you wish for
Round Robin DNS is rarely the best option for 'load balancing'. At the very least it's subject to caching at various point on the network - even at the client side, once the client looks up the address it will cache that response - this means that subsequent lookups may be served from the client's cache and not refer back to the server. Therfore any given client will always see the same address until the cache expires.
I suspect this is what you're seeing.
You can minimize this by setting a lower TTL on the records. This should result in the response being cached for a shorter period, meaning the client will make more requests to the server, with a higher change of using the 'other' address.
However, you're also going to run into issues with the server having two interfaces/addresses in the same LAN. This isn't recommended.
As Jonathon mentioned, you may be better off just bonding the two interfaces. This will provide an automatic level of dynamic load balancing without the latency of DNS caches, as well as automatic failover should one link fail (as opposed to round robin DNS which will cause 50% of requests to fail until the client cache expires and a new lookup is performed (and, even then, there's still a chance the client will try to use the failed link).

Load Balancing and Failover with 10G Standard Edition

Hi,
I am new to Oracle Replication and need some help setting up replication for load balancing and failover. Is this possible using Oracle 10G Standard Edition? I plan on having all updates done on the master site and both databases will be for reads. In case of failure of the master site, I would need to be able to failover to the other database.
Also, if anyone knows of any documention for Basic Replication in 10G, please let me know.
Thanks.

Simple nnapshot replication of data would require significant manual effort to configure to load balance or failover. One the load balancing side, you would generally be limited to to static load balancing-- assigning half the users to one machine and the other half of the users to the other machine, regardless of who is actively using the machine. Failover would be a significant manual effort, particularly to bring the failed machine back into the cluster. You would be implementing the guts of multi-master replication.
Frankly, if you actually have a system which is valuable enough to need load balancing and disaster recovery, I'm going to wager that it will be far cheaper even in the short run to buy more boxes and/or enterprise edition licenses than to try to implement this sort of thing yourself. In the long run, it will be far cheaper, since it will be far easier to maintain. Building all this yourself would probably be penny wise and pound foolish.

Failing to assemble Downloaded Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g

Hello,
I checked the download checksum of the files downloaded for Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g ( Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g ) and they all match checksums.
however, when I try to assemble them with 7zip, I get a corrupt error message. I have tried downloading with Chrome and Internet Explorer. I have also tried assembling the 7zip files different ways.
Is there anything else I should try?
Running on Windows 7, 64 bit machine. (with lots of disk space).
Is there any other way to get the files?
thank you.

thanks for the response
I guess I will have to do that as well.
However, it defeats the speed with which can ramp up with the toolset; thus slowing my time I can allocate to learning it...

Virtual Hosts for Load Balancing

Hi all,
So I have two identical servers, that have SOA Suite installed pointing to the same database. (RHEL 4) I have configured the mod_oc4j.conf file for round robin, and then I created a virtual host on the httpd.conf file to point to the load balance hardware.
It worked! But with a slight issue. The Load Balance server is orasoaqa.tmpw.net:7777, which opens the main Application Server page. However, when I click on BPEL console, or ESB, it continues using the orasoaqa.tmpw.net:7777 virtual, which of course, breaks even trying to login.
What am I missing here? Here's the entry I added to mod_oc4j.conf:
Oc4jSelectMethod roundrobin:local
Here's the entry I added to the httpd.conf on server 1:
Port 7777
Listen 7777
NameVirtualHost XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:7777
<VirtualHost orasoaqaapp101.ma.tmpw.net:7777>
ServerName orasoaqa.tmpw.net
ServerAlias orasoaqaapp101.ma.tmpw.net
Port 7777
</VirtualHost>
and on server 2:
Port 7777
Listen 7777
NameVirtualHost XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:7777
<VirtualHost orasoaqaapp102.ma.tmpw.net:7777>
ServerName orasoaqa.tmpw.net
ServerAlias orasoaqaapp102.ma.tmpw.net
Port 7777
</VirtualHost>
Yes, the port for Application Server and the port on the Load Balancer are exactly the same, I hope this isn't the issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Seeing that you have an external load balancer available, you really should not be trying software load balancing. Windows NLBS is a software based load balancing and is not really dependent on the physical/virtual hosting of the OS. There are certain gotchas
w.r.t the NLB modes since they depend on network protocols such as arp, propagation of MAC addresses and usage of the MAC in the L2 routing tables of network devices.
You should be taking the help of the cloud service provider as ONLY they would have an understanding of their underlying networking infrastructure such as VLANS. addressing, routing rules and such.
You could also refer to the VMware support forum for KB's such as
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1006580
Most importantly, NLBS is a base OS related service and you're more likely to get a response in the Windows Server Forum. In the specific case of BizTalk, the Windows NLB is only used for hosting the out of process services such as those associated with
HTTP/s Receive, orchestration published as schemas, web services (asmx) and/or WCF endpoints.

New CAS for Load Balancing Exchange 2007

I want to add a new CAS to an existing Exchange 2007 environment (there is already one CAS and it functions properly) to allow for load balancing. After adding the new server I wanted to do some testing (before I actually set it up for load balancing).
If I try to log in to a mailbox using OWA I get an error stating that "Exception type: Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Storage.ConnectionFailedTransient ExceptionException message: Cannot open mailbox". I am sure I am missing something simple, but cannot
figure it out. Could someone point me in the right direction?

Is your new CAS in the same Windows site as the rest of your Exchange servers? In Exchange 2007 and 2010, the CAS needs to be in the same Windows site as the mailbox it is servicing (unless you are accessing from the Internet and the other site has
no externally accessible CAS).

Network Load Balancing and failover for AFP Sharing

Dear all,
Somebody kindly teach me to use round robin DNS to perform the network load balancing, it's success but not the failover.
I have 4 xserve and want to do the load balancing and failover at the same time.
I have read the IP failover document and setup it successfully, but anyone know is it possible to do the IP failover for more than 2 server?
For example, 4 server serving the AFP service at the same time, maybe I have 1 more extra server to do the IP failover for thoese 4 servers.
As I know, IP failover require Firewire as the heartbeat detection. But one xserve only have 2 firewire ports. May I setting up the IP failover only by a ethernet port and an IP address? does it possible to detect and failover to any server after server down has been detected?
I believe load balancer maybe the best solution but its cost is too high.
Thanks any advance!
Karllee

well, u have 2 options here
software load balancing
request comes it foo.com -> ws7u2 hosting foo.com is configured to run as reverse proxy . this server sends any incoming requests to one of the four back end web server 7 handling your incoming request
hardware load balancing (this you need to invest)
request comes to hardware load balancer who responds for foo.com -> sends requests to four ws7 server hosting your application
you could try out how software load balancing works out for you before you invest in hardware load balancing
here is more instruction on configuring ws7 + reverse proxy (software load configuration)
- install ws7 on foo.com
- create a new configuration (choose port 80, disable java

Query - Business Objects- CMS Cluster internals for load balancing/ sharing

Hi,
We are implementing CMS Cluster solution between two BOE server on Windows 2003 OS. As per documentation, One CMS server is primary, which coordinates with secory CMS server within same cluster. Does both server share equal load without external load balancer, by BOE cluster functionality? What are the tuning parameters for Load balancing between 2 CMS servers?
Thanks for your help!!
Regards,

If you somehow needed to accomplish load balancing between the 2 machines which wasn't 50/50 you could possibly try dns aliasing and have more copies of one machine than the other. I'm not recommending this, just thinking out loud here.
