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.
