Now you want to verify if they are an ejabberd cluster. Use a Jabber client that allows you to specify the machine to connect to: Gajim, Psi, Tkabber, Exodus, Pandion, GAIM...</p> <p>Here are some ideas. Let's say your Jabber server is 'jabber.example.org'.</p> <ol> <li>Create a new account, for example <noindex><a href="mailto:dummy@jabber.example.org" rel="nofollow" >dummy@jabber.example.org</a></noindex> using your Jabber client. Make sure to tell your Jabber client to use hostname: work.test.com. </li><li>Now login on that account, always specifying the hostname 'work.test.com'. It should work. </li><li>Now change the configuration of your account on your client: tell him the hostname is 'jabber1.test.com'. You should be able to login. </li></ol> <p>If both ejabberd nodes are a cluster, the same Jabber account exists on both nodes, and you should be able to login to the account. The roster, privacy config, offline messages, vcard... all should be equal when you connect to a node or the other.</p> <p>Once you have a cluster, investigate how you want the Mnesia tables to be configured: replicate all info on both nodes...</p> <p>Which node will clients connect if they do not specify any? I guess it depends on your DNS configuration. ejabberd does not make any load balancing.</p> Tue, 30 Jan 2007 19:28:54 +0000 mfoss comment 2972 at https://www.ejabberd.im
