Sun Java System Web Proxy Server 4.0.11 Administration Guide

Setting Up Clusters

Following are the general steps to set up Proxy Server clusters.

  1. Install the Proxy Servers you want included in the cluster.

    Make sure the Administration Server for the cluster has a user name and password that the master Administration Server can use for authentication. You can do this by using the default user name and password, or by configuring distributed administration.

  2. Install the Proxy Server that will contain the master Administration Server, making sure the user name and password matches the one you set in Step 1.

  3. Add a server to the cluster list.

    For more information, see Adding Servers to a Cluster.

  4. Administer a remote server by accessing its Server Manager interface from the Control Cluster page, or by copying a configuration file from one server in the cluster to another.
