3.6.0 Matrix Server Release Notes (5697-7087, February 2008)

PolyServe Matrix Server Release Notes 12

To recreate the mount points, first manually delete the old

mount points (the empty directories on the local NTFS volumes

of each node). Next, recreate the empty directories and then use

the PolyServe Management Console to reassign the mount

points manually.

8290 Virtual host can cause route change

When a virtual host is instantiated it uses the network mask of

the interface upon which it is activated. This can cause a

unexpected route change if the virtual host address was

intended for some other interface on another network or if the

virtual host address is mistyped.

For example, the following command adds the 10.10.1.100

address on the 10.11.1.1 interface.

mx vhost add 10.10.1.100 10.11.1.1

If the 10.11.1.1 interface had a netmask of 255.255.0.0, then the

traffic for the 10.10/16 subnet would be directly routed to the

10.11/16 network for this server rather than being routed to a

gateway on the 10.11/16 network.

8335 URL in HTTP service monitor can cause virtual host to fail

The URL assigned to an HTTP service monitor should not

reference the virtual host with which the HTTP service monitor

is associated. If the virtual host is down, the HTTP service

monitor will not be able to make a connection to the virtual host

address and will also be down. A down service monitor on a

virtual host then tends to keep the virtual host from ever being

instantiated.
