SUMMARY

This article describes Microsoft Application Center 2000. Application Center 2000 provides a method of load balancing that is compatible with the FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions from Microsoft. If you use multiple Web servers on your network, you can use this method to manage groups of servers as if they were a single computer.

MORE INFORMATION

Application Center 2000 is a load-balancing tool where one computer is a Cluster Controller and the other servers in the cluster are members. If publishing request forwarding for Microsoft FrontPage is enabled, users will automatically publish to the Cluster Controller and changes are replicated or deployed to the members from there.

Note The Cluster Controller must be online for this functionality to work.

Additionally, FrontPage components that store information on the server, such as hit counters and forms that write to text files, will automatically write their information on the Cluster Controller. The Cluster Controller will replicate the information to the cluster members.

Note FrontPage-generated Active Server Pages (ASP pages) that write to Microsoft Access databases are not recommended for use with Application Center 2000 because they are typically located in the Web content area, and trying to update data in an Access database could cause data loss. It is recommended that a Data Source Name (DSN) or hard-coded connection to a SQL server is used instead.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
