AW: [omniORB] How can I creat a hot-standby name service?

[Schuetz Andreas]

To avoid the Naming Service being a single point of failure, it would make
sense to me to have something like a standby NS which has all the object
references the active NS has. And it would be nice if clients need not
bother with actively switching NSs if one fails. 

If I had something like a cluster IP address, which would also switch to the
standby server in case of failure, would the NS .log file then work with NS
on this standby server?

The references stored in the log files are specific to the machine it
was created on. That's why the log files include the name of the
machine. You can't just use the log file from one machine on another.

I'm afraid I really don't understand what you are trying to achieve.
I'm sure it's possible to do what you need, as long as your write all
your application code to understand what's going on. Can you give a
high-level overview of what you actually want to achieve?

Cheers,

Duncan.
