Various Load-Balanced questions

[jeffrey]

Hi, I have already signed up for the Load-Balanced Windows Dedicated hosting. While I'm waiting on the configuration I have a few questions:

1) Is it really load-balanced or auto fail-over? (I'm fine either way, just need to know.)

2) How should I request and install the same SSL certificate on the IIS? Do I purchase 1 SSL cert to be installed on both servers, or do I purchase 2 certs?

3) I went with the default 1 GB + 1 GB RAM option for now. Will I be able to upgrade to 2 GB + 2 GB when demand grows?
3a) What is the expected downtime for such upgrade?
3b) Can it be pre-scheduled to upgrade on a weekend?

4) If I install my own COM objects and such, do I need to install on both servers?
4a) What is the general guideline as to which files I expect to auto-sync, which files I expect to manually copy across?

Thank you as always for your help!

Jeffrey

Hello Jeffrey,

The Load Balancing Configuration has been done already and you will receive the login information as we discussed yesterday.
