[opencms-dev] How Run Opencms in Clustered Environment.?

[Jason Trump]

even with OCEE, you can only use one server for editing (but you can display content on multiple servers).  if you just deploy the same application on multiple servers pointed at the same database, it should mostly work ok, though cached content will not automatically be updated when it is edited.

also, automatic failover will not work correctly, because OpenCms stores data tied to the user session outside of the actual HttpSession object.  so if you want to use the cluster to provide high availability in the event of a server crash, i think you either need to look into OCEE or make some modifications to the code yourself.

There is a commercial module called 'OCEE' for this from Alkacon
(http://www.alkacon.com).

If you install OpenCms, verify that it works, and then ZIP/tar up the
OpenCms directory in webapps and unpack it in the other servers in the
cluster it just might work. I've never tried it so I don't know.  But
would love to hear if it does work.
