8b (Conditional) You can use a group to randomize connections to servers. Each time the
server list is sent to a device, it is randomized so that not all devices receive the same
ordered list.
For example, assume the server list contains the following:
Š
Server 1
Š Group 1 (Server 2, Server 3, Server 4)
Š
Server 5
One device might receive the following list: Server 1, Server 3, Server 2, Server 4, Server
5.
Another device might receive a different list: Server 1, Server 4, Server 3, Server 2, Server
5.
In all cases, Server 1 is listed first and Server 5 is listed last, but the order of the servers in
Group 1 is randomized.
You can perform the following tasks to manage server groups in any of the server lists
(Collection, Content, Configuration, and Authentication):
Reorder the list 1. In the desired server list,
select the check box for the
server, group, or L4 switch you
want to move.
2. Click Move Up or Move Down
as necessary to change its
order in the list.
3. Repeat as necessary to order
the list.
Placement in the list determines the
order in which servers are
contacted. The first list item (server,
group, or L4 switch) is contacted
first, then the second, and so forth.
You can order the items in the lists
differently. This allows you to
spread the workload initiated by
devices by placing different servers
higher in one list than in the other
lists. For example:
Š
Collection Servers: Server1,
Group1, Server3, L4Switch5
Š
Content Servers: L4Switch5
Š
Configuration Servers:
Server3, Server2, Group1
Š
Authentication Servers:
Server1, Server2
Remove a server
from a list 1. In the server list, select the
check box for the server you
want to remove.
2. Click Remove .
