Question about deploying cache startup processes on UAT/PROD
Hi,
I have few questions about deploying the cache to UAT and then PROD environment.
Currently in development, I start the cache nodes myself and "kill" the processes myself. That will not be the case in UAT and PROD, I understand.
So, I need some pointers about how I can schedule them in cron in such a way that nodes will start up at predefined time on Monday morning and will shut down on friday evening. I am planning to have 4 storage-nodes (2GB Max JVM Heap) + 1 storage-disabled-proxy node per server, for 3 servers.
Is there any link/page where I can find more information about this?
Also, Is it possible to "name" the individual nodes when they start up? like SERVER1-NODE1, SERVER1-NODE2, SERVER1-PROXY1 & so on...
One more very basic question I have is, when I start proxy node, does it need to have at least 1 server node up?
Reason I am asking is, currently in development server, when I try to start proxy node before server node, it throws exception.
Thanks!
