If CF8 clustering is like CF7, I believe you are giving it too much credit.
The JRUN connectors set up in your web server will not give request to an instance which has been stopped, but it pays absolutely no regard to the "load" of that instance. I was disappointed when I found that out. ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Rick Root [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2007 2:52 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: clustering issue I have a CF8 cluster set up, and one of my instances just locked up on me for unknown reasons (at this time). While the instance was nopt responding, new requests coming into the web site received no response, instead of being directed to the 'working" instance. Once I successfully stopped the errant instance, requests went through to the other instance just fine. Why is this? Shouldn't the listener know that one of the clusters is not responding and direct the requests to the other? Or am I giving the coldfusion clustering capabilities way too much credit. My installation is CF8 Enterprise on Windows 2K3, installed in multi-server mode. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:294645 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
