[cfaussie] Re: CF8 clustering - adding new instance
George, I am assuming as you really didn't say, and I am no expert at this so I am guessing. When you log into the cfide/administrator you can control the instances and clustering in there, I assume this is what you are doing and not the jrun management console! When you create a new instance this will run from a different port, when you cluster I strongly believe that it will share the port for the cluster (this is the bit I am not sure on). The clusters that you are trying to do, are they on the same VPS or machine? Or are you creating other VPS / servers for this. I strongly recommend multiple VPS or machines for clustering, but not critical for development though. There is also another mailing list on house of fusion that is dedicated to Coldfusion Servers, it might pay to post on there as well. Sorry I am not with it, I am only guessing as I have no real experience in clustering Coldfusion as yet. Andrew Scott Senior Coldfusion Developer Aegeon Pty.

[cfaussie] Re: CF8 clustering - adding new instance
Hi George, The 'cfusion' instance isn't seen in the Enterprise/Cluster Manager. You *might* be able to cluster cfusion and instance1 using the JRun Admin Console, but I wouldn't do it. Instead I'd recommend creating another instance (instance2) and then clustering that with instance1. The 'cfusion' instance is cloned to create other instances. So it might be a good idea to leave it in it's original state. Cheers.

[cfaussie] CF8 clustering - adding new instance
Hi, I've just installed CF8 and want to utilise the multi-server clustering on the same physical server. In CF Admin Instance Manager, I can see there is a "samples" instance already there but I can't find the default instance "cfusion". If I add a new instance (e.g. Instance1) I can add "Instance1" to a cluster in the Cluster Manager. As I can't find "cfusion" instance in the Cluster Manager, how can I add "cfusion" to the cluster which already have "Instance1" in it? Please help.

[cfaussie] Re: Creating Excel files with multiple worksheets
Darren, besides the options mentioned so far, I'll note that I did a blog entry a couple months ago where I tried to gather in one place all the various ways, with links to resources with still more details: "How can I process Excel files in CFML? Let me count the ways" http://carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2008/1/12/coldfusion_excel_xls_pro cessing BTW, I realize you're asking specifically about creating a file with multiple sheets. I haven't used each of these to be able to say which supports that, but I have to believe at least one of them would.
