Can OCS Inventory NG run as a cluster?

Question

I am planning to deploy OCS inventory NG (as part of CMDBuild.org) in a dedicated docker container. I would want to run the application server as a cluster of at least two nodes in order to facilitate our existing deployment channels.

Is OCS supported/tested to run in such a setup and can the database access be split to a read and write connection to make use of a DB master/slave setup as well?

Answer 1

If you look the file ocsinventory-server.conf in your apache folder, you will see that the server can run with two databases in master/slave.

It's not possible by defaut to run more than one server at time but it may be possible to do it with haproxy and correct load balancer options (never tested).
