Running a service instance
Hi everybody,
I am thinking about the following setup and I am not sure if it is possible. If yes, what are the proposed configurations settings and what should be monitored in detail?
Instance1: main instance
- holds images, files ...
- serving views ...
Instance2: service worker instance
- process defined services
-- for example addToSolrIndex
-- import tasks - long running task
Both instances will use the same database.
My concerns:
- how do I configure instance2 to store images uploaded by an import task to the right directory (runtime/uploads/... of Instance1, images/products/... of instance1)
Any hints, thoughts about this topic would be very appreciated.
Best regards,
Ingo

Hello Ingo,
Just a small correction.
It's Unison the sync software, not Bison.
Sorry for the confusion.
Regards,
Giulio

Hello Ingo,
I share a solution we use for sharing images across ofbiz instances on different servers.
If your instances run on Linux servers you could also consider to use Bison, an utility tool that could keep two remote directory synced, both for adding and removing files.
It's not real-time as a mounted volume, since the sync script has to be scheduled in crontab (is: every 5 minutes), but it's quite simple to use and configure and if you do not necessarily need real-time for your imes/files you could give it a try.
Regards,
Giulio

Hello Ingo,
* Store your upload directory on shared volume (bucket, nfs, sshfs other something like that) and mount it on the same patch on each server (like /var/lib/ofbiz/contents)
* Use the same path for the ofbiz home on each server hosting each instance.
* Configure the upload content on your ofbiz properties
