Sametime apologized and submitted

After a nice day of getting everything working,
a quick dinner at O'Connor's
Beef & Chowder House. Yes
they have fine corn and crab chowder tonight in huge portions (eating as
I type). I don't do the beef thing but the salmon and chicken choices
look great.
Blogger's note to
his faithful readers:
So I wrote a bit more below but on third
reading edited some. I thought that heck, here is a quite a bit of a guide
the past few days to get you rolling, but just hire me to do that darn
thing for you instead :-) It might be my hunger thinking that right
now, or small amounts of greed. Bwa ha ha ha ha!!! But either way
I loved the experience of doing it again at a customer site since we already
do this on our hosted side and have the steps down to a nice science. Anyone
upset over that? Forgive me in advance if so
Ok, down to business. Carl
was right in saying that the client chose the F5 hardware based solution
for load balancing. We have it set to load balance some ports and
let the servers talk to themselves behind it on others as necessary. Server
2 had a hard time understanding it was to really run Sametime, so it spent
a lot of time overnight on the naughty mat as I stated and for punishment
got reloaded today.
So chat fails over from the Java and Sametime
Connect client. The Notes client does not have that ability in the
current releases, but that is on the list for later ones. Instant
Meetings are a whole other posting that needs to be done with some sort
of Matrix that only the Swedish Chef from the Muppets could understand.
One key thing when setting up Community
Clusters, do not forget to work with and choose if you wants Secrets &
Tokens or SSO. Don't try and be fancy and do both. Domino has
hard enough time, then layer Sametime and it's ability for S&T and
you get a deadly mix. Yes it does write to the notes.ini when making
this change but playing with that isn't the route to go. You should
sneak and see my session on notes.ini deciphering at Admin2005
for that.
One other side tip, we learned another
important lesson. Sametime debug parameters rely heavily on ]
and not on } now don't they?
