A question about load balancers and Terracotta clustering

[Wessel, Keith William]

Thanks, kevin, we'll give that a try. Was trying to keep things simple, but looks like we made them more difficult.

So, no config file needed for the dev console, then? It'll let me put in all the options to connect to my cluster once it's running?

Thanks,
Keith

Its easier to run dev-console from your workstation ... and then just
connect to the TC cluster. 

Just pull the same tar ball you used on your servers over to your
workstation and run the .sh file there... (obviously the bat file if
your on a windows workstation) 

You'll need to verify that your workstation can access the TC ports
needed on the tc cluster servers though.
