About this task

You do not need to enable load balancing if you are using an external load balancer or if you are running a single server cluster.

Procedure

  1. In System Manager, click Elements > Avaya Breeze® > Cluster Administration.
  2. Optional To enable load balancing for an existing cluster, on the Cluster Administration page, do the following:
    1. Select the check box in front of the cluster.
    2. In the Cluster State field, click Deny New Service.
    3. Verify that the Cluster State column for the cluster is changed to Denying.
    4. Click Edit.
  3. Optional To create a new cluster with load balancing enabled, on the Cluster Administration page, do the following:
    1. Click New.
    2. Specify the attributes of the cluster.
  4. In the Cluster Attributes section, select the Is Load Balancer enabled check box to enable load balancing.
  5. In the Basic section Cluster IP field, type the IP address of the cluster.

    Two Avaya Breeze® platform servers are automatically designated as active and standby to perform the load balancing functionality.
