Clustering Base Meeting Servers
A cluster of Sametime® servers requires a minimum of two nodes, a primary node and a secondary node, and at least one WebSphere® proxy server to handle routing and caching tasks. To reduce the resource load on product nodes and avoid port conflicts, you can choose to install a stand-alone WebSphere proxy server on a separate computer instead of using the instance that was installed on a Sametime node. If you plan to have both the WebSphere Application Server and the WebSphere proxy server on the same computer, ensure it has been properly sized to handle the multiple workloads.
About this task
