- rizla420, on 11/09/2007, -1/+52Great... "Our apologies
The IBM developerWorks Web site is currently under maintenance.
Please try again later.
Thank you."
Guess they should have tried clustering their own servers - orion846, on 11/09/2007, -6/+29why do you guys all jerk off to digg bringing down sites, as if you had anything to do with creating/making this place? you're all users to a website, nothing more, what are you bragging about?
- MikeonTV, on 11/09/2007, -0/+16I'm Smrt - http://www.dotcache.com/http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-linux-ha/index.html?ca=drs-
- schestowitz, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14Brilliant article indeed. It has its audience and its purpose.
- ThreeDee912, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13It's not the diggs, it's how many people visited the site. Once it hits the FP, the site gets hit with a massive amount of traffic, even without people digging it.
- anarchistuk, on 08/11/2009, -0/+11You could say, it's setup in a heartbeat. Pun intented...
- JoshuaH, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11Diggs != Page Views
Shorter and to the point. - ThreeDee912, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Thanks for the effort, but why did you have to save it as a jpg for?

- alok0, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5another mirror? http://image.bayimg.com/eagilaabg.jpg
- chedabob, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I'd consider myself a fairly average digg user, and I understood that article perfectly.
- init100, on 10/10/2007, -4/+745 diggs and now "under maintenance". Coincidence?
- tdous, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I agree but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be posted. Half the news stories on the net are probably beyond the understanding of a lot of people. I'd personally still prefer that they were there.
- chedabob, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Don't knock it. I wish more people would do it, because it makes it far easier to mirror the site.
- jtms1200, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4yes, the irony of an article about scaling and dealing with massive loads going down from... dealing with massive loads, should not be lost on even the slowest of mind.

- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3To paraphrase the show Psych, If I understood any of that I would still be a virgin. Not ashamed to say it was way above my head.
- SniperX, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2only somewhat easier. Your new problem is the horde of Digg users downloading your 2.8MB image thousands of times.
And not only that, you lose all links and interactive content.
Though as long as i'm not hosting it it's always a welcomed option =) - Niten, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2IBM's developerWorks articles are always top notch. They also have a great introductory tutorial to Ruby on Rails:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-rubyrails/ - Shiftyeyedgoat, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Step 1: Building realserver images
Step 2: Installing and configuring the LVS directors
Step 3: Installing and configuring Heartbeat on the directors
Step 4: Creating LVS rules with the ipvsadm command
Step 5: Installing and configuring mon on the LVS directors
lolwut - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Easy steps isn't necessarily short steps. For people for are into more advanced stuff like this, the arcticles tend to get longer - to avoid trouble.
- stouffer67, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Set up a Web server cluster in 5 easy steps for someone who has used linux their whole life.
- marcov8, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1want a cheap big cluster? check out http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?node=201590011
- daftman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Then your point of failure is at your switch. With this set up, you can take away one directors and the system would automatically reconfigure itself and work.
- ThreeDee912, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2It's not the diggs, it's how many people visited the site. Once it hits the FP, the site gets hit with a massive amount of traffic, even without people digging it.
- chedabob, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Or, you know, you could save yourself a heap of money and run it off your own hardware.
- Rileyper, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1i don't take orders from a penguin who smells lemony fresh, but i will make an exception for you
- mym6, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3Explain
- richid, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3IIS is a joke.
- chedabob, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1If it's just an article, and they put it on Imageshack, or photobucket, I don't see a problem.
- varmit, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1What I see, and what I like, is that they refer to SUSE Linux in this document. I'm not a SUSE fan, but I usually put IBM in as working with Red Hat and Novell as one of IBM's competitors.
- foxhoundadmin, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2this is a joke... right? i mean, the page was SO long i could barely click the slider in the scrollbar! "easy." LAWL!!
- raynar, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Or you know, in Windows, you add the NLB service, give each machine the same IP for it, and change the web server IP in IIS to that one and you're done.
- db113456, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Did you really expect the IBM server to actually go down due to extra traffic :-)
- init100, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I know, but the digg count is the best statistic we have. There is no page view count to use, so I'll use the digg count as a substitute.
- Rileyper, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1 echo "NEW IPVSADM TABLE:"
- marcov8, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0you don't understand what ec2 is for
- m1fcj, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0IBM uses SLES for many things, among others, they also have something called IRES (IBM Retail Environment for SUSE) which is catered for POS systems. Simply put, they back SUSE quite well but I'm pretty much convinced that it's Novell letting everyone else down. (Long time SuSE/openSUSE user, now I am seriously pissed of with Novell and had switched to Fedora Core (with Planet CCRMA repos) on my workstation and Ubuntu on everything else)
- rss2pdf, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1ahhh...the IBM developerWorks Web site isn't actually USING these clusters now...right ?
because...that would kind of suck. - dontmatta, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Great article. I'd like to see similar ones about managing sessions and database transactions on this type of configuration, which is what I imagine most web sites would need.
- hrak, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Keepalived ftw! Much faster vrrp based failover than heartbeat.
- dredman, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2I don't think it is bragging as much as it is an expression of disappointment, especially on employing scale and bandwidth
- maz2331, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0Not bad, though I prefer to use a load balancing switch instead of using servers for that function, and share my "content" via an internal "cluster" network via NFS. Still, not a bad article.
- jimbojones1977, on 10/10/2007, -3/+2And that makes you cool how?
- Archon810, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1*****.
- orion846, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1fair enough, but we all know that this isn't the only thread this bragging goes on in. it happens ALOT, i just finally decided to say something about it in this thread, guess i should've chosen a different one.
- wilkinnh, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0double whammy
- bias, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1Congratulation, you Linux fanboys has successfully redefined the word "EASY", and the number "5".
- crashnaz, on 10/10/2007, -5/+0even IBM can't handle being dugg
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -6/+0Ditto as above; server off line after 52 diggs.
