Hi,
I've configured a DNN web farm using the following config:
- Windows 2003
- windows load balancing
- Configured each server to access the DNN files over an UNC file share with trust
- resynched IIS so they are all using the same ID
It's working but have a few questions about DNN and web farm configuration.
Question 1:
In the documentation it states that the 'EnableWebFarmSupport' setting in web.config should be set to 'true'. When I set this value to true I'm unable to access the page settings section (via the setting link under page settings). When this is set to 'false' (the default setting) I am able to select page settings. So... is 'EnableWebFarmSupport' still a valid/supported feature?
Question 2:
My page skin token allows me to see which server I'm using to display the page. If I add a new module (text/html) to a page using ServerA and then refresh the page until ServerB kicks in then I can't see the Text/html module created while on on ServerA. If I iisreset both servers I'm able to see the update on serverA and ServerB. Is there a setting to ensure both web servers are accessing the same cached data?
Question 3:
Has anybody successfully stored session state in SQL server on DNN (<sessionState mode="SQLServer"....)? Any advantages. I'm thinking this may solve question 1 above but have not had time to implement it.
Many thanks for any advise on the above.
Cheers
Simon
