Need detailed documents for Webdispatcher as EP7's load balancer

[Former Member]

Hi!

We have a portal (EP7) with some java application servers.

We want to use SAP webdispatcher as our portal's load balancer.

We have a doc from SAP called "How to implement workload distribution -- EP6".

However this doc is very hard to understand.

Would you please share your document ?

Points guaranteed. Thanks!

Using SAP Webdispatcher as a load balancer

You need to create a icr file & set the parameter in PFL file

Set the parameter

wdisp/server_info_location=

<b>UNIX: file:///<Path>/info.icr

MS: file://C:\< Path>\info.icr</b>

The file info.icr contains

Version 1.0

J2EE19416500

J2EEhost15XX00LB=2

P4host1 5XX04LB=2

J2EE19416501

J2EEhost2 5XX00LB=1

P4host2 5XX04LB=1

Where <b>J2EE19416500</b> & <b>J2EE19416501</b> are the ID of server instance & XX represent instance number.

For Eg: wdisp/server_info_location=C:\< Path>\info.icr

Hope this solve your query....reward point if helps

Hi Swapnil,

you do not have to configure an info.icr file due to the fact that the

web dispatcher is retrieving its load-balancing information directly

from the message server of the SCS instance..

The info.icr file was introduced for older J2EE engines when no

message server was available.

Hi Greg,

It would be great if you can give some additional advices of what is missing within the documentation so that we can make it better..
