CLUSTERS


Improving server availability in a cluster
Clusters are designed to improve server availability. To configure a IBM® Lotus® Domino® server for clustering, specify a default port in the server's NOTES.INI file by using this setting: Server_Cluster_Default_Port=portname. When you specify a port, you limit cluster replication to that specific port even if the port has failed. If the setting Server_Cluster_Default_Port= is not defined, the standard server search algorithm is used and all ports are tried. If the designated port fails, that is, the port specified in the Server_Cluster_Default_Port= NOTES.INI setting, the server may be accessible from another port. You can allow the use of other ports by entering this NOTES.INI setting in the server's NOTES.INI file: Server_Cluster_Auxiliary_Ports=portname.

Note If you do not specify a default port in the setting Server_Cluster_Default_Port=, all ports are tried.

The Server_Cluster_Auxiliary_Ports= setting can be set to any one of these values:
