Chapter 6: Creating Scalable and Highly Available Web Sites 215
The Bright Tiger selection that appears in the Load Balancing Product drop-down
list indicates that ClusterCATS will actively load balance HTTP traffic across the
cluster rather than the third-party device or software.
4. Enter the name of the Web site in the Site Alias field and click OK.
The load balancing device will now actively distribute load to the Web servers
based on packet flow while ClusterCATS monitors ColdFusion load and
availability. If ClusterCATS detects that the ColdFusion Server is becoming
overloaded, it will supersede the load balancing device and redirect traffic
accordingly.
Configuring administrator alarm notifications
The ClusterCATS alarm notification feature provides instant feedback about critical
events that take place within a cluster. Once an event triggers an alarm, ClusterCATS
notifies you by e-mail.
You can configure alarm notifications to warn you about:
• Disk Failure
• HTTP Server Failure
• Server Busy Warning
• Server Unreachable
• Web Server Failover
• ColdFusion Probe Failure
