Clustering the Meeting Recording Capturer and Recording Renderer servers
Cluster the IBM® Sametime® Meeting Recording Capturer and Sametime Meeting Recording Renderer servers by setting the configuration keys in this procedure. In this configuration, the Recording Capturer and Recording Renderer servers have an IBM Load Balancer in front of them and the servers use a shared directory to store the recordings files.
Procedure
-
From a browser, enter the following URL, replacing serverhostname.domain
with the fully qualified domain name of the Sametime
System Console server.
