Portal Dispatcher

56 Views

We have a several production portal app servers, load balanced by a hardware load balancer.

Each app server has a dispatcher and two server nodes.

We have two new physical machines, however, they are only capable of handling one server node each, due to physical memory restrictions.

To have the proper load balancing, we want to have one dispatcher and server node on one machine and one server node with no dispatcher on the other machine. Having that one dispatcher load balance between two server nodes on seperate physical machines.

The question is, can a java dispatcher load balance between two server nodes on seperate machines?

Please note that we are talking about a Java Dispatcher and not the SAP Web Dispatcher, which is used to load balance based upon the portal message server.

Thanks,

Tom
