[rt-users] 2 RT instances pointing to a single database instance

[Chris Haag]

Hi,

Lots of great stuff on this list and the wiki about multiple instances 
pointing to different database instances (rt_math, rt_english). However, 
I interested to know if anyone has set up multiple instances pointing to 
the same db instance?

Why?

Out support office in the UK is seeing very slow response times, we'd 
like to try hosting an instance in the UK, which connects to the same 
database that the instance here in California uses. Hopefully, serving 
the pages locally will improve page load speed.

My biggest concern is around database locking -- does RT 3.2.1 do 
database level locking or application level locking. Not worth 
corrupting my database!

thanks,

Chris
