It is possible and effective: high availability (failover) on 2 guests with local storage?

Hello

I have a discussion on the implementation of ha (failover) with 2 guests with local storage.

My advice is to go with a shared storage. But there is another view, use the cluster failover MS with local storage service to save on the shared storage hardware.

2 "mirorred" on each host machines. Is it feasible at all?

The HughesNet: have 2 virtual machines (SQL server and server applications in a highly available environment). The workload of the machines will be raised to 2 very powerful servers that are supposed to be buying.

1. Please briefly explain a feature of local storage to provide HA.

2. I got to cluster in the virtual environment, not so I guess that the shared storage is used only in the virtual environment.

Thank you.

Michael.

There is software that can replicate a running, physical or virtual machine to another accessible location on the network. This could be as simple that between two close hosted ESXi of VMS or high-speed WAN. Take a look at things like neverfail, doubletake others.  The costs would probably be a bit prohibitive in a smaller environment. It might be possible and maybe even practice to use a virtual storage device having a failover replication. Use of storage on each host and allows to provide the data store. Open-e

The Microsoft Clustering solution needs a shared storage.

  • Remove the secondary controller and tertiary high availability for each access point

    I want to remove secondary and tertiary sector controller of high availability for each access point. I have more than 900 APs associated with a Version of the WLC 8510 8.0.121.0 software. What is the best/better way to remove secondary and tertiary controller?
    Or I can create a model first. We use version 2.2

    Hello

    Easiest way:

    Yes you can do this by using the first Cisco Infrastructure, you can create a Setup AP Lightweight model to specify the name of the PDC and the IP address and specify an empty value (choose the first empty option in the drop-down list) and 0.0.0.0 for the secondary and tertiary sector controllers.  Then you can apply this model to the AP, and she must remove (virgins all) values for these fields.

    Long way:

    Yes there is no clean way to remove it from the CLI. you need to manually remove each on the AP.

  • Local storage and multiple ESXi hosts

    Hi, I was wondering how vWorkspace manages local storage in an environment with a single server Vcenter and two ESXi, with a local data store each.

    If I store a 'master' (I mean the gold statue) vm on the local storage of an ESXi, can replicate vWorkspace this virtual machine to the local storage of the other ESXi as Citrix VIAB?

    If not, how can I use both my ESXi servers with local storage and maybe provide some sort of HA?

    Am I forced to use a storage shared, if I want to be able to deploy clones related both to my ESXI?

  • VPN high availability: double 3 k in the hub and the PIX as rays

    Hi Experts.

    In my scenario, I need routing between the rays and, above all, high availability (HA).

    On the shelves, I have Pix 501/506E, OS ver 6.3. In the hub, I have a couple of redundant VPN3k.

    What mechanism is the best:

    1 - hub and spoke topology with remote EzVPN in rays - to HA, I can take advantage of the "load balancing" feature of the VPN3k?

    2 - hub and spoke topology with remote EzVPN in rays - to HA, I can take advantage of the "backup server" feature of the VPN3k?

    3 any-to-any topology (an IPSEC tunnel between any pair of sites) - for HA, I can take advantage of the 'LAN-to-LAN backup' feature of the VPN3k?

    Thank you

    Michele

    I'd go with NLB on the backup server. With load balancing your connections will be spread over the two hubs. If a hub dies, then at least it will only affect half of your connections, rather than each of them in case of death of your primary and backup servers using.

    If a hub dies, your PIX connections will be de-energized for a short period, but they will be able to reconnect back automatically without making you no change.

  • Fabric interconnecting Cisco high availability

    Hi Experts,

    I would like to know,

    (1) what does fabric adapter interconnection cluster (L1, L2) ports are using high availability?

    (2) can form us able to interconnect fabric and fabric interconnection interconnection 6100 6200 to a cluster? If ok means how they exchange of history since the two are completely different material. ?

    Thanks in advance,

    Jako Raj

    Hello

    (1) L1 and L2 ports are used for the purpose of managing only basically to synchronize data management, triggering a possible failover.

    (2) different hardware platforms are supported in the same cluster only in a process of upgrading equipment. Actually what really happens in this meanwhile is the copy of the configuration and the new FI is promoted as primary. Although he works as a group, he is an active-standby cluster, where a single FI acts as principal.

  • High availability with two 5508 WLAN controllers?

    Hi all

    We are considerung to implement a new wireless solution based on Cisco WLC 5508 and 1262N Access Points. We intend to buy about 30 access points and have two options: either buy a WLC 5508-50 or, for redundancy to, two controllers 5508-25.

    Is it possible to configure two WLC 5508 as a high availability solution, so that all access points are distributed on the two WLCs and during breaks WLC one another case manages all the APs?

    If we have 30 access points, and one of the two WLC 5508-25 breaks of course that not all access to 30 but only 25 points can be managed by one remaining. Is there some sort of control to choose the access points must be managed and which do not?

    How does such a configuration looks like in general, is the implementation of an installation of two controller quite complex or simple?

    Thank you!

    Michael

    Hi Michael,

    Do not forget that the 5508 works with a system of licensing. The hardware can support up to 500 APs, but it depends on the license that you put in.

    I think 2 5508 with 25 APs license will be more expensive than a 5508 with 50 APs license.

    If you have 2 WLCs, the best is NOT to spread access between the WLCs points. In doing so, you increase the complexity of homelessness (WLCs have to discount customers to each other all the time). If your point was to gain speed, it really doesn't matter as the 5508 can have up to 8 Gbit/s of uplink speed and has the ability of UC to treat 50 APs with no problems at all. So I find it best to have all the access points on 1 WLC, then if something goes wrong, all the APs migrate anyway for the other WLC.

    If you want 50 APs at a 25-degree WLC failover, you can select who will join Yes. The APs have a priority system, so you assign priorities. If the WLC sees it's full capacity but higher priority APs are trying to join, it will kick down-prio APs for the high prio allow to connect.

    WLCs is not exactly "HA." It's just that if you have 2 WLCs work together (as if you had 700 APs and needed to put 2 WLCs) and delivered to customers. Or all APs sat on a WLC and when it breaks down, they join the other available controller.

    The only thing to do is to put each WLC in the same group of mobility so that they know.

  • VSphere hosts high availability 2

    Hi all

    I am trying to achieve the following by using the essential plus the package. I had 2 identical machines with 2 TB of storage. The two are running ESXI and I want to configure high availability and load the pendulum. From what I've read on for them is that vmware needs shared storage so kind of san if I want to use high availability. But I don't have this machine, what I want to achieve is the following: Vmware reflects the discs on both machines (network raid 1) and if a hardware failure occurred on one of them, the other machine will start all the vm remaining. In the same way vmware should do load balancing. From what I've read on the internet vmware had VSA, but this has been discontinued. VSAN is not an option, because I don't have 3 machines. One possible option would be for example starwind but I would have preferred an option of vmware itself.

    So in short it is a way to configure high availability and load with 2 hosts balancing and not shared storage? Preferably without third party software.

    Kind regards

    Sebastian Wehkamp

    Technically, you can use DRBD and Linux (or FreeBSD and POLE if you're on the dark side of the Moon) to create a device block tolerant replication between a pair of virtual machines running on a hypervisor nodes. Throw in

    failover NFSv4 point mounting on top and you have a nice VMware VM data store. Tons of a defined software storage vendors have exactly this ideology within their virtual storage devices if you do not go to the difference

    However as StarWind Virtual SAN is FREE for the installation of 2 knots in the scenario of VMware (Hyper-V licensing is different if you care) and can be run on a free Hyper-V Server (no need to pay for licenses of Windows), you CAN end up with a faster

    back from road StarWind. Depends on what you want from a set of functionality (iSCSI? NFS? SMB3? Online dedupe? Cache?) and what forum do you prefer for public support to ask questions

    --

    Thank you for your response. I thought that since preparations are exactly the same secondary machine would be able to easily start the vm of lost. For synchronization, I thought it would be something like drbd, when unable to connect with the other secondary hosts will become primary. This works in the case of a hardware failure, and network failure half a brain will take place that must be resolved manually. I play with it replicaton and reconsider the starwind software.

  • WLC 5508 high availability

    Hello

    Today I have two WLC 5508 (with license for 100 AP each of them), on a single site.

    The WLC work availability (active-standby).

    However, we have a new scenario, with 02 sites: A and B (attachment).

    I would like to know if it is possible to work as follows:

    The WLC - A as the main controller of site A. WLC - B as a backup (BDC) of WLC.-a.

    The WLC - B that has the PDC site B. WLC - as a backup (BDC) to WLC - B.

    For example:

    If WLC - a falls, site access Points are managed by B WLC site - B and vice versa.

    Is this possible?

    How can I configure the new scenario? Don't forget, there is a site-to-site between Site A and Site b.

    Another point:

    If I add more than 50 APs on Site A. How does the license number?

    Should I buy a license for the two WLC?

    TKS,

    >....

    >.. .is it possible?

    No. , high availability in terms of controller is supposed to be what is said, the backup controller is not 'full' - stby and cannot play other roles.
