server load balancing question - theory - 12/17/2004 15:44:30   
Using windowServer2003, sql200, and 2003 on index server

hi i have a question regarding a server set up, i have 2 banks of servers. Each bank contains a web server, a db server, and an index server. Now the two banks are identical in every way.

Now i want to have a fail over situation with a load balancing switch, having each web server listen on port 80.

my question is... should i have only 1 db server and 1 index server? what happens if a web form updates a database, and only one gets the information, or the index servers are parsing the net at the same time and bandwidth is eaten up cause of it? I'm not sure how to set up the web and db and index servers so that they always have the same info for a fail over senerio. I hope i explained myself clearly, if not please let me know.

J


i'm just talking to myself here.... i think i need to set up the two dbs as a cluster service and use only 1 index, and have both web listening on port80 with a load balancing switch. Any Thoughts on This
