Set up a High Availability Cluster
This topic describes how to set up a highly available server that is based on the Windows failover cluster and iSCSI technologies.
The information in this topic is an example configuration for Windows clustering intended to provide guidance only. You may need to adjust based on your specific requirements and environment.
Node | Description |
---|---|
Node1 | iSCSI initiator (primary machine) connects to the target to utilize
storage.
|
Node2 | iSCSI initiator (secondary machine) connects to the target to utilize
storage.
|
NodeX | iSCSI target machine provides access to shared storage.
|
Task Roadmap
Step | Task | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | Set up the iSCSI target on NodeX. | Complete the following steps: |
2 | Set up the iSCSI initiators on Node1 and Node2. | Complete the following steps: |
3 | Configure a failover cluster for cluster nodes. | Complete the following steps: |
4 | Deploy Proficy Authentication and Configuration Hub on cluster nodes. | Complete the following steps:
|
5 | Restart both Node1 and Node2 servers. | To apply the Proficy Authentication and Configuration Hub
updates, restart the machines that represent the nodes in the
cluster. Test on both the nodes: Set up authentication and log in to Configuration Hub to verify the application's functionality. |
6 | Deploy Operations Hub on cluster nodes. |
|
7 | Restart both Node1 and Node2 servers. | To apply the Operations Hub updates, restart the machines
that represent the nodes in the cluster. Test on both the nodes: Set up authentication and log in to Configuration Hub to verify the application's functionality. |
