Clustering Breeze Live If your Macromedia Breeze license permits, you can install Breeze Live on two or more computers and then cluster the computers to provide load balancing and failover for Breeze Live. This white paper explains how to create a Breeze Live cluster and verify that the cluster functions successfully.
To set up a Breeze Live cluster for load balancing and failover: 1 Install Breeze Live on each computer that will be in the cluster. For information on installing Breeze Live, see the Macromedia Breeze Installation Guide. 2 Create a user account on the domain that contains the Breeze Live and Breeze Presentation platform computers, and give the user account administrative privileges to all the Breeze Live and Presentation platform computers. This is the Breeze user account.
c Click Apply and then click the Permissions button. The Permissions window opens. d Remove the Everyone group, if you want to, and then click Add. The Select Users or Groups window opens. e Click the Locations button and select the domain in which you created the Breeze user. f In the object names text box, enter the name of the Breeze user, and then click Check Names to verify that the name you entered is recognized, and click OK. The Select Users or Groups window closes.
5 Set the FCS_CONTENT_PATH property in the Breeze Presentation platform custom.ini configuration file to the location of the folder containing shared Breeze Live files.
c Click the Log On tab. The Log On dialog box appears: d Select This account and then enter the name of the Breeze user account you created, followed by the account’s password and a confirmation of the password. 8 Restart the Macromedia Breeze Application Service so that your changes take effect.
To verify failover in a Breeze Live cluster with two computers: 1 Make sure that no Breeze meetings are currently open. 2 3 4 5 6 7 10 This ensures that if you create two meetings, load balancing assigns each meeting to a different computer. Open the Breeze Manager and create a new meeting. Enter the meeting room for the meeting.
