Hi,
I have multi node environment. One Central node and one Rim node.
Please let me know how load balancing works in Oliksense.
Few more points need to be clear.
1) Can access hub from both nodes?
2) In case of central node down can i access applications from rim node.
Hi Lalit
The scheduling algorithm used for load balancing is round-robin.
1) Can access hub from both nodes?
You can if you configure 2 virtual proxies
2) In case of central node down can i access applications from rim node.
Just if the node is configured as Failover Candidate
Regards
Thanks a lot Herbert.
Regarding the scheduling algorithm being round robin, there is a pretty strong caveat on that.
It seems that the node allocated to a user when they log on becomes the node used for any subsequent continuous sessions. That means that if you logon to Qlik Sense in the morning - when it is all quiet and you go to the central node, if you keep Qlik Sense open all day, and open a bunch of other apps etc. during the day without being timed out, all of that activity happens on the node you originally logged on to - regardless of the fact that it might be under serious load from other logons.
So it only round robins new connections. Which means that you probably want to think seriously about separating out the different types of behaviour for load balancing.
