Share modules deployment in cluster SSO mode

[nikes]

Hi,

We have clustered environment with CAS SSO.
server1, server2

Load balancer works on round robbin algorithm.

Question: Is it necessary to use "http://serverort/share/page/modules/deploy" for each node in cluster for custom module deployment?

In my case, yes, I had to.

I was in impression that once deployed, other node in cluster will pick up the changes. But it was not the case.

As we use general server DNS name certificate for CAS SSO, we cant access server directly with specific cluster node.
e.g http://server1ort/share/page/modules/deploy
http://server2ort/share/page/modules/deploy

What will be other options for module deployment on each cluster node?

Thanks in advance,
Nikesh

Hello,

running modules/deploy on each server should only be necessary when you have not correctly set up Share clustering. See <a href="http://docs.alfresco.com/5.0/concepts/cluster-share.html">Setting up Share cluster</a> in the offical documentation. The main issue here is that changing module deployment on one server needs to include notifying the other server (via Hazelcast), which then loads the deployed modules from the Repository, where the first server has persisted the effective configuration.
