Re: Managing upload files in multiple servers(pawns)

Why not use php to copy the file over to the other box? You could do this either by ftp, nfs etc, or by making a the php script communicate with the upload script on the other box as though it was a client.

Thanks Duncan,

 thanks for the suggestions, I will try them and come back..

 Please suggest me if you know any file synchronization tools over different
servers other than rsync. I like if syncronization triggers immediately
after uploading the file automatically rather than using cron.

Thanks,
S.Srinadh.

Hi All,

We have a site in php and two web servers(pawns) to balance the load.
There is a page in the site through which user can upload images.

When a user uploads an image, the request goes to only one of the two
servers.
So the image will be uploaded to only one server.
Use a shared file system such as NFS for upload storage.

Use some form of session management/balancing that ensures a client
browser
that upload ends up on the same server immediately afterwards, and use
something like rsync to keep the image area in sync.

Shared storage is probably the better bet - perhaps with clever code that
tries a local disk first, then the shared storage if not found on
local.  If
found shared and not local, pull to local.
