[SOLVED] Using a FILEDEF against clustered production servers
[SOLVED]Let me start by saying I have a case open but I thought I would fish out here as well. I am trying to report against the edaprint.log file so that the business can determine if end users are logging in and using the new reporting system. I wrote a fex that FILEDEFs the edaprint.log file using the path it is in on the servers. Works great as far as the report itself goes however the problem is that the production servers are clustered so when I execute the fex I never know if I am getting the edaprint.log from prodsrv01 or prodsrv02. Any suggestions? Here is the FILEDEF statement
FILEDEF MAS DISK EDAPRINT.MAS
FILEDEF EDAPRINT DISK "//export/webfocus/ibi/srv77/wfs/edaprint.log"
-RUN

[SOLVED]To answer your question, Waz, yes. However, Lee Donaldson from the Atlanta office was on site today for another item and stopped by. It looks like the way the servers are configured, they are sharing the same edaprint.log file so I should be able to see all users that logged on to the system to run reports regardless of what server they are load balanced through. So I am going to close this discussion.
