A.6 Known Multi-Homing and Path-Based Issues

A.6.1 Disabling a Multi-Homing Master Accelerator

Disabling a multi-homing master accelerator also disables all of its children. The iChain Proxy Administration Tool, however, doesn't reflect that the children are disabled.

A.6.2 Cannot Use Double-byte Path for Path Based Multi-Homing

All data in the NAS file is not yet double-byte international ready.

A.6.3 Multi-Homing Display in the iChain GUI

The multi-homing displays correctly in the individual accelerator screen. It also displays correctly in the Monitoring->Services screen. It is also configured and works correctly. However, at times the multi-homing parent/child relationship is not displayed correctly in the Configure->Web Server Accelerator screen. This is a display problem only.

A.6.4 Path-Based Multi-Homing Might Not Function Properly with JavaScript

This is particularly important if you have the option Remove sub-path from URL enabled. JavaScript might obscure the URL data that iChain needs to access and modify to direct requests to backend servers. Because an absolute path reference can occur anywhere in JavaScript, the iChain word parse does not know how to assemble or parse through JavaScript.
