Sametime, clusters and Websphere Portal


Tags :


After that wonderful adventure a few weeks ago creating the Sametime cluster I blogged about, little things like to pop up.  Like why won't the Websphere Portal utilize the cluster name for awareness?  One server works just grand.  After a bit of searching I came across this little gem.  Ever hear of rolling snake eyes?

Problem

A customer has clustering set up with Domino Servers for QuickPlace, Sametime, and Notes databases, including mail databases.  The customer would like to be able to  use the cluster name instead of the specific server name so that the Lotus Collaborative Portlets, which run in Websphere Portal 4.x will use the advantages of Domino clustering.  Is this setup possible?

This functionality is not available in WebSphere Portal 4.1x.

An enhancement request for this functionality has been submitted to Lotus Software Quality Engineering.  It may be investigated for inclusion in later releases.
