Using Cluster URL for Failover & Load Balancing

                           Using Cluster URL for Failover & Load Balancing

URLs used on the WWW uses protocol specified by :, for example, "http:". 

A CORBA (JAVA) product may optionally support the "http:" formats. 

All CORBA products must support "corbaloc:" and "corbaname:", which are two URLs defined. The purpose of these is to provide a url address which can be read by Human.

Some examples of corbaloc URLs are shown below:

• corbaloc:iiop:Host1:2809,iiop:Host2:2809/FileNet/Engine-- This URL can be used for the two or more different host URL.
•  iiop then the default version of IIOP that is used is 1.0. It is advisable to specify the most recent version of IIOP that is understood by both the client and server application.

• The default port number is 2809.
• Similary this can be used for a host and virtual url for a cluster.Example is given below:
• corbaloc:iiop:Host1:2809,iiop:Cluster Virtual Host:9810/cell/clusters/ECM_Cluster/FileNet/Engine
• The default port number for cluster url is 9810.
