We are considering purchasing a license for vBulletin. However, we need a question answered regarding loadbalancing. Our setup is the following:
We are load balancing our websites using a ServerIron from Foundry Networks across 3 physical machines. The mySQL database lives on one of the 3 machines and is considered the master. All machines are running Linux.
My question is:
-- Can vBulletin be configured on each machine to point to ONE mySQL database. I.E, there are no concurrency issues when there is no guarantee which physical machine you are connected to.
-- Are there any known problems with loadbalancing (using hardware, not DNS) with vBulletin?
Thanks for helping,
