We've recently upgraded our Environment from 8.10 to 9.0 running the 8.98 tools release. We've setup multiple HTML servers, and are planning on running two instances of HTML servers on each physical box. Each instance will run on a separate port. (Probably 82 and 83). Ideally, 4 physical servers with 8 instances total.
That being said, we want to hardware loadbalance these instances. We setup a "virtual cluster"on our hardware loadbalancer (a Coyote Point E350GX) with a virtual IP and port number (say, 80).
Here's the crux of the issue. If the virtual cluster is set to listen on the same port as the server is listening on (port 82 and 82 respectively) then the load balancer performs as it should and the page loads appropriately. If the virtual cluster is set to listen on a different port (like 80) and the servers listen on 82 or 83, then the page does not load and recieves a HTTP 404 error.
It seems to me the HTML servers hardcode the return port into the HTTP headers.
Anybody have an idea what might be going on here, or how I can influence this behavior??
Thanks in advance.
