server manager and WAS cluster… not happy with debugging

You think that server manager is the answer to all of your problems…  You use WAS ND to serve up the web…  You go live…  Everything is good…

Until…

Lets say…

You want to turn on logging for a user…  And you can get the the logging section for one of the cluster nodes…  Actually you can’t get to any of them…  that is not cool…

Or maybe you want to use SM to report of failed logins or other metrics for the web servers, sorry – you can’t do that either.

Hmmm, so not the perfect solution you thought.

The better way is to contact www.myriad-it.com for their virtual load balancer and some advice on what to do with your architecture… I’d avoid ND and use apache load balance directives or the myLB.
