Hi all, this is my 2nd thread post to this forum.. Recently I woking on a system develop project where I have to setup 3 webserver with a load balancing server. those 3 webserver will contain the same content of a website, like if one webserver go down then other servers will fullfill that server work.... now I have to make a system where when our developer upload a file in no1 webserver then the same file automaticaly update in other 2 webservers, so that the developer wil relife from the botheration of uploading the same file to 3 different webserver.... is there anybody who can able to help me out? Im not bit fimiliar with this kinna concept..... regards, Redwan
The easiest way to achieve this is that you let your developer upload the files to one master server and sync all other servers with rsync: http://www.howtoforge.com/mirroring_with_rsync
its not really or at all File replication but its an simple way u have an server backend with like RAID setup if one drives dies just take it out and replace it and the server keeps on kicking alone than u just make on the www front end to the server/webroot/ and same for any Vhost sites and just once all sites have the file never try and dont have time to play around with File replication. ATM good luck with it anyway
If you do not mind spending some money you can use PeerFS across the servers, it does true file based replication not block replication meaning it is more efficient than DRDB
