When trying to plan for additional deployments of Websense servers, I've had a hard time figuring out exactly what services I need where because I'm not sure where the points of failure are in terms of connectivity... so I thought I'd ask here. I know there is some leeway in different services, but how long until they give up and stop working because they can't talk to a dependent?
- How long will a Policy Server operate after it's lost connection to the Policy Broker?
- How long will a Filtering Service operate after losing connection to the Policy Server / User Service?
- Are there any other dependencies between services that need to be taken into account when you're planning to cover new internet connections? Obviously I want to keep them as few as possible but still need to account for failover and network interruptions.
Thanks,
