Kpacs with cluster

  • Hi,


    I have been using conquest server aproximately 4 months in my hospital.
    We are at the milestone to migrate our simple server to a 2-node cluster.
    Nowadays i do some experiments and settings on cluster servers.
    I installed suse linux enterpise and configure clustering (hi-avaliability) on them.
    Then installed conquest both of them with seperate postgre database.
    Since i am doing experiments both machines' configurations, paths, conquest
    databases are compleyely identical.


    Cluster works well, when one node fails the other node handles the retrieve requests from
    k-pacs.


    But when active node failure is occured during a patient data is being fetched from k-pacs,
    k-pacs is locked.


    I have to restart k-pacs gui end server on my windows client.
    Then k-pacs works, and other node (migrated) responses.


    I tried the "DicomMoveOnSeriesLevel = 0" in k-pacs.ini
    At that case k-pacs gui is not locked and retrieves the patient data (some portion received until failover),
    but i have to restart k-pacs server in order to rerieve next patient data from migrated node.


    I hope i could explain my situation, i write here because i think that there is no problem with conquest.
    Surely there are some firends here who configured cluster and k-pacs clients as in my situation.
    Helps are apriciated. Ali


    Note: I didn't to any move operation TO cluster yet, it requires shared device, database replication etc.
