Hi Emmanuel, 

> How many segments should we use ?

Your segments should correspond to your LANs that support single-hop broadcast, or preferably, multicast transmission between all of the daemons in the segment.

> Which network masks/range ?

If your network gear supports it, then you should prefer to use multicast addresses for your segment addresses instead of broadcast addresses.  That is more efficient, in terms of interrupts for uninvolved machines on the network, and you don’t have to worry about getting your network masking / addressing exactly correct.

> Are there any limits in spread use hit by our config ? (max segments, max computer per segment, max computers in the whole config  …)

In 4.4, there should be no new limitations on the number of daemons you can have in a segment or in a configuration.  It is possible, however, that some Windows specific regressions may have been introduced at some point because we don’t have a great environment in which to test large Windows deployments.

To better debug your problems, I’d need you to send some log file outputs from the daemons with the following debug flags enabled:

DebugFlags = { PRINT EXIT CONFIGURATION MEMBERSHIP }

If you could also run an sp_monitor at the same time and have it query the status of all the involved daemons and give me some of that output, that might help too.

Cheers!

Dear spread users,
 
We're upgrading an old setup made with :
	• Spread 3
	• Windows XP computers

To this new setup :

This doesn't work :
	• When starting spread.exe on more than 2 computers in the same segments
OR
	• When starting spread.exe on more than 8 computers
 
We're getting "spread connection refused" error.

It seems better with few computers (others aren't installed yet), but it's  still strange for us.
 
Please advise us about :
	• How many segments should we use ?
	• Which network masks/range ?
	• Are there any limits in spread use hit by our config ? (max segments, max computer per segment, max computers in the whole config  …)
 
Thank you for your help
