Before Install The Shadow Instance For HA

1) The master instance is the primary Cloud Connector instance, while the shadow instance acts as a backup. 2) The master and shadow instances must be on the same version and use separate internet connections. 3) To set up the shadow instance, first enable high availability on the master instance, then install the shadow instance on the same network and configure it to connect to the master instance, allowing synchronization of configurations.

Before Install the Shadow instance

Instance chính của Cloud Connector là Master instance, instance dự phòng sẽ là Shadow instance.

Presequisite:

- Master instance và Shadow instance cần phải cùng 1 version.


- Cần phải sử dụng 1 đường internet riêng biệt để đảm bảo connect giữa hai instance.

A. Để setup Shadow instance thì cần chuẩn bị Master Instance cho High Availability
1. Mở Cloud Connector UI sau đó chuyển đến Master Instance.
2. Chọn High Availability ở menu chính.
3. Chọn Enable.

B. Installing and Setting Up a “Shadow Instance”


Prerequisite:
- Install the “shadow instance” in the same network segment as the master instance.
Communication between “master” and “shadow” via proxy is not supported. The same
distribution package is used for master and “shadow instance”.
- If you plan to use “Lightweight Directory Access Protocol” for the user authentication on
both master and shadow, make sure you configure it before you establish the connection
from shadow to master.
1. Choose “Shadow” and “Save”:

2. From the main menu, choose “Shadow Connector” and provide connection data for the
“master instance”, that is the master host and port. Choose “Host name”. For the first
connection, you must log on to the “master instance”. The master and shadow instances
exchange X.509 certificates, which will be used for mutual authentication. After fill in all the
prerequisite field, click Save.

3. Upon a successful connection, the “master instance” pushes the entire configuration plus
some information about itself to the shadow instance. You can see this information in the UI
of the “shadow instance”, but you can't modify it.
4. The UI on the “master instance” shows information about the connected shadow instance.
From the main menu, choose High Availability:

5. The Alert Messages panel displays alerts if configuration changes have not been pushed
successfully. This might happen, for example, if a temporary network failure occurs at the
same time a configuration change is made. This panel lets an administrator know if there is
an inconsistency in the configuration data between master and shadow that could cause
trouble if the shadow needs to take over. Typically, the master recognizes this situation and
tries to push the configuration change later automatically. If this is successful, all failure
alerts are removed and replaced by a warning alert showing that there had been trouble
before.
6. If the master doesn't recover automatically, disconnect, then reconnect the shadow, which
triggers a complete configuration transfer.
