To learn about round-robin DNS load balancing for the cluster, read [Configure DNS for the Azure FXT Edge Filer cluster](fxt-configure-network.md#configure-dns-for-load-balancing). To use this method you must maintain a DNS server, which is not explained in these articles.

Other load-balancing methods might be appropriate for large or complicated systems. Consult your Microsoft representative or open a [support request](fxt-support-ticket.md) for help. (Azure Load Balancer is currently *not supported* with Azure FXT Edge Filer.)

### Create the cluster path
5656

5757
The cluster path is a combination of the vserver *IP address* plus the path to a *namespace junction*. The namespace junction is a virtual path that you defined when you [added the storage system](fxt-add-storage.md#create-a-junction).

For example, if you used ``/fxt/files`` as your namespace path, your clients would mount *IP_address*:/fxt/files to their local mount point.

The IP address is one of the client-facing IP addresses defined for the vserver. You can find the range of client-facing IPs in two places in the cluster Control Panel:

If you need to move data to a new cloud core filer, take advantage of the cache structure by using parallel data ingest. Some strategies are described in [Moving data to a vFXT cluster](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/avere-vfxt/avere-vfxt-data-ingest). (Avere vFXT for Azure is a cloud-based product that uses caching technology very similar to the Azure FXT Edge Filer.)
