regarding the commerce servers clustering

[Rahuul Dravid]

Hi folks,

I have a couple of questions regarding the commerce clustering,

for instance if we take a simple 2 node cluster with a dmgr and remote webserver scenario
-> Do we need to go for a custom profile or application server profile on the other node ( with out commerce instance )

-> Do we need to catalog the remote db for the other node which doesn't have the commerce instance on it?
(As the instance creation will does this for the commerce server node)

->do we need to add the existing commerce server in the cluster member or create a new server using the commerce server as template ??? (so that the original server will be as a backup in case of failure)

->If we create a cluster of application server using the an exisiting server as template then we add a
new member to the existing cluster then this one automatically gets the config from the template that
we used before ???

I would really appreciate if any one can clear me on this !!

Thanks in advance !
