Installing Multiple Globe WebApp Instances in Load Balancer Environment (Master/Master Mode)

Deploying multiple search servers in Master/Master with an external load balancer, ensures high availability for the search application.

In Master/Master configuration indexation done by Globe WebApp instances synchronises with each other regularly.

  1. Install two Globe WebApp instances on different machines.
  2. Supply the Globe URL as:

    - Globe first instance: http://<Globe_Host1>:<Globe_BasePort>
    - Globe second instance: http://< Globe_Host2>:<Globe_BasePort>
    
    Do not share the data directory of two Globe WebApp installations.

    Only two Globe WebApp ports are used by search requests: <Globe_BasePort >+10 and <Globe_BasePort >+11.

  3. In Globe WebApp load balancer configuration file declare two listening ports:

    Only two Globe WebApp ports are used by search requests: <Globe_LB_Port>+10 and <Globe_LB_Port>+11.

  4. Each port of load balancer balances between Globe WebApp instances: <Globe_BasePort >+10 and <Globe_BasePort >+11.
