Does Rollbase have the ability to direct an individual client to a specific server?
IE - We have multiple production servers set up - but would like to isolate only a few specific clients to use one of the servers.
Hello,
By default, in a cluster environment customers are loaded dynamically to any available production server component.
However, you can change this behavior in order to assign a specific customer to a specific production server.
To do this:
1. Change the isDedicated property to ‘true’ in the server’s components.xml configuration file. For example:
<Component name="PROD2">
<DisplayName>Production Server 2</DisplayName>
<InternalRoot>192.168.100.120/.../InternalRoot>
<ExternalRoot>www.rollbase.com/.../ExternalRoot>
<Props>
<isDedicated>true</isDedicated>
<Power>1.2</Power>
</Props>
</Component>
2. For the customer, change the “Dedicated Server” option on the Customer Edit page to specify the desired production server.
Please note, any number of Customers can be assigned to a dedicated server this way (in other words a dedicated server is not limited to just one customer, it can have any number of customers explicitly assigned to it)
Hope this helps.
