Load Balancer setup with remedy

Hi,
We are trying to setup Load balancer in our new environement.
We created a 'remedyvip' for loadbalancer and created rules to route
the traffic to rem1/rem2 arservers  which use 44629 as the tcp port.

But we don't want to use the port number with the vip.
That is any connection coming to remedyvip (port is optional and can
be null or anything) should be directed to rem1 or rem2 and to port:
44629

Our SA told the CSS rules are written to look at connections coming to
44629 and direct those connections to rem1 or rem2.
He does not know how to configure CSS rules so that any connection
coming to remedyvip to be directed to rem1 or rem2 to port 44629.

We tried enabling the portmapper in rem1/rem2 but still does not work
with remedyvip, it did work when we use the actual server name to
login with no port number.

What is the default port remedy user tool uses when no port number is
specified?
Any one has this kind of setup and some hints?

Thanks,
Vamsi

Hi,

there is no default port number. If you don't configure a port in WUT or WAT then the client tries to use the portmapper to determine the correct port. You have to create a rule for Port 111(UDP) to be directed to rem1 or rem2.

This works for us.

It should look something like this

       remedyvip:44629                    remedyvip:111(UDP)
              |                                  |
              |                                  |
              |                                  |
             / \                                / \
            /   \                              /   \
           /     \                            /     \
     rem1:44629  rem2:44629           rem1:111(UDP) rem2:111(UDP)


HTH

Kind Regards Conny

But our users don't want to use port number in the user tool.
So your suggestion still works without a portnumber.
I need something like this.


          remedyvip
              |
              |
              |
             / \
            /   \
           /     \
rem1:44629  rem2:44629

The users don't need to specify a port number but you do need to make sure the server has both register with portmapper set to true AND a specific port set.  This way your clients can use the portmapper to find the fixed port that the server is using (and the load balancers are redirecting).
