ClusterCATS for ColdFusion Components  
 
 

ClusterCATS for ColdFusion consists of two separate, installable components:

  • ClusterCATS Server for Sun Solaris and Windows NT
  • ClusterCATS Explorer (Windows NT only)

You install the ClusterCATS server on every server or machine you want to include in a cluster. You use the ClusterCATS Explorer to create and administer server clusters.

 
 
  ClusterCATS Server  
 
 

ClusterCATS Server runs on Windows NT and Sun Solaris. Each ClusterCATS Server monitors the status of all other Web servers that are included in a cluster and tracks application and transaction resource availability.

Each ClusterCATS server:

  • Manages the distribution and synchronization of content for optimal retrieval
  • Intelligently directs user URL requests to the optimum Web server within the cluster
 
 
  ClusterCATS Explorer  
 
 

ClusterCATS Explorer is Windows administrative utility you use to create and manage ClusterCATS clusters. ClusterCATS Explorer provides all required functions for centrally managing one or more clusters. Using a Windows Explorer-like graphical interface, you configure, view, monitor, and perform other management tasks, such as:

  • Creating and removing clusters
  • Adding and removing servers from a cluster and setting server load threshold levels
  • Registering cluster administrators
  • Selecting events for alarms and specifying the recipients of alarm email distributions
 
 
  Note  
 

If you plan to run ClusterCATS for SUN Solaris, you need at least one Windows NT system for your system management station.
