Suggestions for Sitecore xP3 configuration
I would like to use the configuration roles package for a Sitecore xP3 production (2CD + 1 CM + 1 UAT + 1 Development). I'm tring the configuration role package and, if I'm not wrong, I need to manually configure the scalability file (ScalabilitySettings.config) to set the two different CD name. Please in your opinion there are some other configuration that I need to do manually after I installed the package in each role?
If I'm not wrong I need to configure the web.config Role file in the following way:
- CM:
<add key="role:define" value="ContentManagement|Processing|Reporting" />
- CD1:
<add key="role:define" value="ContentDelivery" />
- CD2:
<add key="role:define" value="ContentDelivery" />
- UAT:
<add key="role:define" value="Standalone" />
- Development:
<add key="role:define" value="Standalone" />
Thanks in advance. Dante.
Hey @danteciambella
If you need a clean Sitecore configured to work in scaled environment, you don't need to modify the ScalabilitySettings.config as everything is done already.
Mixture of ContentManagement|Processing|Reporting
has not been tested so far, it is better to replace it with Standalone
which is almost the same.
I cannot advise on UAT and Development as I do not understand what is it - for me it sounds like different environments, but it also means they have to be completely separate and have to use different sets of databases.
Hey @AlenPelin thank you for your answer. UAT and Development are Standalone Server Role. But I continue to not understand, sorry. The Installation will be clean, I'll install each role, but I don't know if after used the Configuration Roles I also need to make the configuration suggested in the following links: https://doc.sitecore.net/sitecore_experience_platform/setting_up_and_maintaining/xdb/configuring_servers/configure_a_content_delivery_server paragraph "Changes to configuration file settings" and "https://doc.sitecore.net/sitecore_experience_platform/setting_up_and_maintaining/xdb/configuring_servers/configure_a_content_management_server" in particular "update each of the parameter values".
Sorry I closed the issue accidently
UAT and Development are Standalone Server Role.
Sitecore does not support having more than 1 standalone role in 1 environment. So I highly recommend to have these instances in different environments.
after used the Configuration Roles I also need to make the configuration suggested in the following links
Valid question. No need.
This project is intended to eliminate any changes to default configuration files.
Taking into account that ContentManagement|Processing|Reporting
is not officially supported, extra configuration is needed only when having separate Processing|Reporting
, or Processing
+ Reporting
