Data gateway - Change Primary
Hello, I'm using one gateway cluster with a two gateway that working in fail-over mode. Gateway Cluster: - Gateway A (primary) - Gateway B (fail-over secondary) now I need to set Gateway B as pr...
Why delete A? You will want to keep your failover setup.
The choreography is as follows:
- Have your recovery key handy. Nothing will work without that.
- Delete B from the cluster
- Register B as a replacement Primary in the cluster, kicking out A.
- Add the now orphaned A back into the cluster as a secondary gateway
You will not want to do this via Powershell.
Hi Ibendlin,
if I understand correctly the steps to take are:
remove node B from the cluster
uninstall the DataGateway from server B
rerun the DataGateway setup on server B and perform the takeover
is this correct?
Thanks you
no need to remove B from the cluster first (but it also doesn't hurt if you do).
