Clustering author instance

[ragamgnair]

Hi,

I am trying to cluster two authors. I am following the document http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/core/administering/cluster.html.

PFA.

Thanks in advance,

Also - if you found the AEM documentation to be lacking details to perform the task - please log a bug against the docs here:

Thank you for your response.

Currently i am using the AEM 6.0 version . It has content repository extreme 1.0.5. Does it support clustering of author instance?. Or clustering will support only for the version above crx 2?....

Thanks in advance

Hi,

please refer to the right version of the documentation. You initially posted the URL to a 5.6.1 documentation, and clustering has totally changed in 6.0. When you start with AEM 6.0 in a fresh installation, you will use Oak (aka CRX 3) and TarMK. TarMK does not support active-active clustering at the moment. If you want to have an active-active cluster, you need to use MongoDB.

And anyways: Before you start to use clustering, please upgrade your instance(s) to the most recent servicepack (sp2 at the moment). I also encourage you to get in contact with AEM support (aka Daycare) regarding this, plus also any other recommended hotfix.

kind regards,
Jörg
