1) if i upload a new image on one server other server does not have that image in it data folder .

That's probably because you're saving image files to the local directory. You'll need to save it to a shared drive or to something like cms.

2) if i change a web content (editing the link given in web content )on one server other server the content change . i mean when i click on edit web content i can see the updated link but the web content is not pointing to that link.

I'm not understanding what you're doing. Would you explain the exact steps.

Sure. Realize that putting a load balancer in front of two separate web applications does not mean you've now got a cluster.

The two liferay instances will need additional configuration so they work together in a cluster, such as sharing the image gallery, document library, database, and indexes...

Hi David,

I thought there was a configuration that allowed us to use database only for document library and the image gallery, indexes etc. Perhaps not the best performance but allow us not to use a file system for the liferay home data?

Thank you for your support.

Hi Everyone,

after going through this link http://videos.liferay.com/webinars/2010-07-28.ogv i had understand
we need to configure database ,image gallery, document library ,indexes as also explain by david

for sharing database i had use same database in portal-ext.properties in my both the instance.
for sharing the image gallery, document library i had try on my local system first i had cut data folder from liferay-portal-6.0.5 and added following in portal-ext.properties in local system

image.hook.impl=com.liferay.portal.image.FileSystemHook
image.hook.file.system.root.dir=path/data/images
dl.hook.impl=com.liferay.documentlibrary.util.FileSystemHook
dl.hook.file.system.root.dir=path/data/document_library

and restart tomcat but this is not working is this right !!!
