Load balancing topologies

When your application server is set up to use multiple nodes, you can deploy multiple document generation components to create a system for load balancing in your environment.

Each Document generation component accesses its own Monitor and Control component

The default setup for a load balancing is that each node accesses different Monitor and Control components. The files that are created during each document generation are stored in different directories on the server where the Monitor and Control component is deployed.

Multiple Document generation components access a single Monitor and Control component

You can configure your Remote services so that each node of your application server access the same Monitor and Control component. The Monitor and Control component stores the files created during document generation in a shared storage location on the server. See Configuring load balancing for Rational Publishing Engine document generation on WebSphere Application Server for more information.
