Clustering two publishers

[#1]

Hi,

Has any one clubbed two publishers or added more than one distribution service? How does this work when there are more than one distribution service.

Thanks,
Karthi

Well, distribution services don't really "cluster" but yes, you can have more than 1 per server (although I'm not sure why you would ever need that). More likely, you mean running 2 distribution services, where 1 is located on each of 2 servers. You can then control both of them from one machine by pointing the QEMC to the address of both.

I'd like to setup two publisher instances in an active/passive cluster mode, does anyone know how to do that?

If you're trying to leverage the horsepower of 2 servers to execute 1 task, that's not possible. A "cluster" in the Publisher sense will just auto-assign a QDS to a task based on free memory. You can read more about this in the Server Reference Manual, page 197 (for v10). The configuration itself is simple and is done in QEMC >> System >> QlikView Distribution Services. Make sure you don't add a 2nd QDS itself, but just a 2nd address within the same QDS.
