Multiple load servers
Howdy,
This is a crazy question, but I cannot clearly understand the posts I have
found.
I have Linux machine A. From this machine I run headless using Rake. I
think I have reached the load limit on this machine. I want to involve
Linux Machine B to generate more load. Do I configure A to be both client &
load and B load only? Will Machine A be overwhelmed by the data returned?
Alternatively do I use the GUI from my MacBook as the client and let Linux A
& B generate load?
Please point me to a good post that guides me to the correct configuration.
Thanks,
Carl

The points below are in decreasing order of preference in my opinion.

a. Run A as load and B as load (just schedule them to run together) and
combine results
b. Use the Macbook and let A and B generate load
c. Let A be client + load and B load only. You'd have to determine how much
load A can handle given its additional responsibilities.
and follow the steps in the guide sebb sent to allow you to increase the
load a single instance can generate.
