Configuring BMC Atrium Orchestrator for high-availability

Before configuring 

Some content is unavailable due to permissions.

for high-availability (HA), review the instructions for setting up your authentication system for high-availability (Remedy Single Sign-On HA environment).

To accommodate HA requirements, configure the repository server to use an external clustered database and configure a high-availability configuration distribution peer (HA-CDP).

• For the repository, you can configure an external database to handle clustering functions.

• For the CDP, you can install multiple CDPs on a grid.

  Note

  Multiple HA-CDPs in a grid are not supported.

Configuring the repository for HA requires that you complete the following tasks in the listed order:

1. Install a BMC external authentication service (optional – needed if you do not use the embedded authentication service). For more information, see Installing-an-authentication-service.
2. Install a single instance of the repository.
3. Configure the repository to use an external database, which manages the clustering functions.
4. Install the primary CDP.
5. Install the HA-CDP.
6. Install content (modules and adapters).
7. Add the adapters to the grids (CDP and HA-CDP).
8. Configure the adapters.
9. Enable the adapters on the CDP and HA-CDP.
10. Activate the modules on the CDP and HA-CDP.
