Redirecting Project Server PWA site

Question
-
Hello,
My PWA is provisioned as http://server1/pwa.
Now a new server "Server2" has been brought into the server farm.
I need to redirect any requests for http://server2/pwa to http://server1/pwa.
Thanks
Prasad

Hi,
you can use Alternate Access Mapping to rediret all your server1 calls to server2 pwa.
but are you trying to configure network load balancing? or you simply want server1 to go out from the picture and server2 to act as web server?
there is a very brief and to the point blog available to guide you to configure NLB and AAM: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/chrisfie/archive/2007/01/23/configuring-load-balanced-pwa-site.aspx
also you can see: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/joelo/archive/2007/01/05/nlb-network-load-balancing-and-sharepoint-troubleshooting-and-configuration-tips.aspx
hope this helps.

I got your question.
Setup an alias and use the load balancer to distribute the load.
http://epm.project.com/pwa will be distributed to http://server1 and http://server2

Thanks Jamshed and Sriram for your responses.
Please help me in one more thing.
I want server2 to be web front end server. What needs to be done to achieve this?
Note: Server2 has been added to the farm after creating the web application in Server1.
