Hi all,

I think I have a rather complicated but intriguing question for the mailing list...

I succeded in assmbelying and having up& running a 6 node cluster with apache running clustered and proxied by HAProxy. The most relevant thing of this structure is that the web root in on top of a glusterFS volume shared between the 6 nodes, so basically each apache server serves pages from the same cluster and every file upload is immediately available to other nodes.

This approach is working quite well with a couple of web applications, and I was wondering about the possibility to migrate our OTRS from a single, standalone server (with Postgresql DB on a dedicated machine), to the cluster.

What worries me is not the session problem because the otrs installation would remain a single one (staying in the clustered fs), but the scheduler and all the scheduled maintenance operations that otrs does during the day, the postmaster activities, and so.

Has anyone had any experience with OTRS on top of a cluster with GFS2?

Is my approach at least theoretically ok or am I doing something really wrong in your opinion?

Thanks a lot
