High availability / Re: Can I Use HA to Build Second Node?
« on: March 26, 2024, 03:59:48 pm »You need to at least update to the same version as the production system, install all desired plugins, and create all interface configuration. It is critically important that you create the interfaces with the same names and in the exactly same order as on the production system.
So e.g. for my home setup:Code: [Select][APP] opt8
[DSL] opt2
[LAN] lan
[RPI] opt5
[SRV] opt3
[WAN] wan
[WG0] opt6
[WG1] opt4
[WG2] opt7
[WIN] opt1
Switch e.g. the assignment of opt2 and opt3 to DSL and SRV, respectively and funny and hard to debug failures are going to happen.
Yes Patrick...I have seen the issues. I checked the Interfaces Overview and everything matches, right down to the loopback. I have all the interfaces ready on both sides and will install the plugins on the second node.
Thanks for chiming in soo quickly. These nodes are VMware virtual nodes, via a cloud provider. I have been fighting weird gremlins in the HA setup and finally decided to go back to square 1 and build out the nodes once again.
