texte = Hello everyone,We are constructing a scalable webserver involving webcat 3.0. We have used webcat for 3-4 years successfully. Now we are undergoing some upgrades an d need a little help. I have knowledge on using and writing w/ webcat 3.0 software, but do not know much about the hosting/server aspect. The fellow designing our system has 4 general questions, that I am having trouble answering. Any help on one or all is greatly appreciated.Situation: Windows NT/2000 Multiple servers forming a farm using the Networkload Balancing serviceWe would like to use webcat as our backend Database on a seperate machine, and cluster it with the other machines, via several options.1.Question: Webcat seems to use internal databases flat files for its data store, and they must reside on the machine that uses them. Is this true?? Or can they be hosted on a seperate server?2.If it is, does webcat support some type of replication between machines? , or can those be shared by another webcat machine?3.How are the internal Databases structured, as listed in the handbook? Or is there a seperate structure to them not mentioned in the hand book?4.Lastly, what kind of fault tolerence Webcat recommends or have other users have come up with?
