Richard,

I dunno if anyone has answered you yet but this is what I do for the search
on Doonesbury.com

I created a non-load balanced site for each web server.  This site is only
accessable on an internal ip address.  This site has access to
CFAdministrator and also to some cfml templates.  So these sites are like
www1 and www2.

I then go into my cf administrator on both sites and create the verity
collections. (www1.mydomain.com/CFIDE/administrator and www2...)

Then on each machine individually I run my cfml templates to populate my
collections. (www1.mydomain.com/generate_files/updateverity.cfm and www2...)

This works fine for me.  There may be better ways to do it. If so I'd be
interested in hearing about them!

Subject: HELP! Verity on a Cluster


Good Morning!

I have an urgent matter which I'm sure someone out there has encountered
before, and can help me with.

We are in the process of migrating sites over to a clustered server,
involveing two replicating boxes, which we call "web1" and "web2."

Our problem is, how to go about creating verity collections that will work
on both machines on the cluster?

At present, we are using
<CFCOLLECTION ACTION="Create" PATH="#Path#" COLLECTION="#CollectionName#">

to create the collection.

But since we are load balancing, we never know which box the collection is
being created on.
This part we can handle, by specifying a path directed at "Web1." But that
raises issues involving CF Server, as you can imagine:  The files will end
up on both machines, but only one machine will recognize them as a
collection!

How to force a collection to be created on two machines at once?

Please help!

Thanks in advance,
Richard Gilbert
