Please note: This is NOT a question about using OPNcentral to manage HA firewall clusters.
Is it possible to have an HA build for OPNcentral itself?
I have a dedicated VM for the controller, but it would be good in our environment to have a synchronised HA pair. Preferrably in different DCs but different cluster nodes in the same DC would be better than nothing.
I can't see anything about this in the documentation, nor doing a search here, and I don't know enough about the internals to know if it's feasible or not.
If anyone can suggest a starting point I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.
OPNcentral actively polls all managed systems so HA is really easy.
- Install OPNcentral on both cluster nodes.
- Activate synchronisation of OPNcentral in System > High Availability > Settings.
- Synchronise from active to backup.
Done.
Thank you, that worked for me. It also exposed a bunch of other limitations in the HA configuration :( but those are separate problems.
