[mapguide-users] add servers?

[Zac Spitzer]

there's more info about why here

http://www.nabble.com/MapGuide-RFC-42---Remove-Support-Servers-td14184171.html

basically really quickly, the site server / support server approach
was inefficent

the gist is your better off using a sticky load balancer and manually
replicating the repository content
between servers... there was a lot of talk between the servers which
affected the scale..

if you still want to follow the old approach, i guess you can restore
the mapadmin php files from
the 1.2 subversion branch

Alas, there is no out of the box solution to handle the load balance
approach, it needs to be 'sticky'
so that sessions always go to the same server

Apache has some support this, which I have never tried out
