Hey quick question on that, we have two different netboot images up on our netboot servers, a 10.4 image that the PPC machines netboot to and a 10.5 that the intels netboot to.   That was the easiest division I could think of to make sure that all machines netboot w/o and issue as about half of our PPC machines would not be able to run leopard.  In any case I’m wondering if load balancing in the manner you were talking about would still work if I have multiple servers that are all identical with the ID’s all above 4096 for all netboot images?   Or will it only work if there is one image?    Also will this work across subnets the same?  We currently are netbooting across subnets but only to one server.    Sorry for all the questions and thanks in advance!<o p="#DEFAULT"></o> </p>

If you make the netboot id above above 4096 and put the image on both netboot servers as their default image, then the netboot servers will auto load balance between the two, the client will pic the quickest image to boot from. </p>

Anyone done this with casper yet through the JSS?  I want to have multiple netboot and image servers in one subnet and use mass edit for the auto run data.  So I have two servers set up, both on the same subnet but with different IP ranges on different DHCP ranges both behind NAT routers. <br><br>As far as I can tell, the JSS will point new netbooting clients to the other server, but how will it know to do so, and at what point does it start to auto balance?<br><br>thanks,<br><br>Thomas Larkin<br>TIS Department<br>KCKPS USD500<br>tlarki@kckps.org<br>cell:  913-449-7589<br>office:  913-627-0351<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Casper mailing list<br>Casper@list.jamfsoftware.com<br><a href="http://list.jamfsoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/casper">http://list.jamfsoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/casper</a><o p="#DEFAULT"></o>
