[cluster] stanza

Use the [cluster] stanza to configure a clustered WebSEAL server environment. Notes:

• It is vital that this configuration stanza is not included in the configuration database. The cluster::* = exclude configuration entry in the [cfg-db-cmd:entries] stanza ensures this exclusion.
• In addition to the configuration entries listed here, a config-version entry is added at run time in a clustered environment. This configuration entry contains version information about the current configuration. Do NOT manually edit this version information.
• All cluster members must be the same server type. We can cluster either:

  • WebSEAL servers that are running on appliances.

  • WebSEAL servers that are running on standard operating systems.

• is-master
  Use the is-master stanza entry to set the master server for the WebSEAL cluster.
• master-name
  Use the master-name stanza entry to define the authorization server name of the master for the WebSEAL cluster.
• max-wait-time
  Use the max-wait-time stanza entry to specify the maximum amount of time, in seconds, the master server waits for a slave server to restart.
