Server-level fault tolerance

If you have the load-balancing option installed, you can configure multiple Unified Broker instances of a given type to support the same application service and share the same controlling NameServer. In this configuration, the controlling NameServer distributes client connection requests randomly across Unified Broker instances. If one Unified Broker instance becomes unavailable to handle client requests, another is available to take its place, thus providing server-level fault tolerance.
