I know there is the load balancing/failover solution for clients checking into SEPM but I am looking to implement load balancning for my admins logging into the SEPM console. We have over 100 administrators and I do not want at any point one of our 3 management hosts to become overloaded because they are all logging into one directly at the same time. I would like to implement load balancing this access through an F5. Or if one host is down, when an admin logs into the load balancer name they will be redirected to available hosts.
Example:
server1.domain.com:8443
server2.domain.com:8443
server3.domain.com:8443
Users typically log into any of the above 3 server names to the manager console.
I would like them to log into sepmserver.domain.com:8443 instead. Which this would hit the F5 load balancer and their session would be directed to any of those 3 hosts.
Again, this is for Console log in to administrer policies and clients not clients checking into SEPM. We already have that set up with Management Lists.
My environment does have AD authenication and SQL setup.
Is anyone doing this or with round robin in DNS? Symantec support said it isn't supported but just curious from the community.
Thanks!
