Cluster configuration not working

Hello guys,

I'm trying to configure a high availability schema in our SN instance for orchestration. So I started looking into capabilities. The thing is that for themselves they don't seem to do anything. Then I read that capabilities work inside IP ranges, and that's something I don't want to use.

So I found clusters, that according to what I read, the configuration shouldn't be too difficult. So, this is the process I followed:

  • I created two mid servers
  • I added to both of them all the existing capabilities (we don't have any custom created ones)
  • I set one of them as the default one
  • I create two clusters, one failover and another one load balance with these two servers (I tried first with only failover that is what I want, but it failed so I created the other one)

According to what I read, this should be enough to have a cluster between these two servers, in case one is unavailable. So, my test was to stop the service of the default mid server, and run the workflow. When I do that, I get the error "The configured default MID Server (<DefaultServer>) is not available". When starting the default server's service, the workflow runs without problems (I'm just trying to get the ipconfig from the localhost in my test workflow).

I'm running a "Run Powershell" activity, so adding the Powershell capability should trigger this, right? I'm not sure if I'm missing something.

Thanks in advance, any feedback is appreciated.

Regards

Hi Guillermo,



Do you have one of your mid servers in the property: mid.server.rba_default ?



Thanks,

Hi Berny,



Thanks for the response. Yes, when I was talking about the default mid server, I was referring to the value that appears in that property.


Hi Guillermo,



Were you able to figure the required configuration?   I have the same requirement.

Hi Ruzbeh,



Sorry for the delay. We received a notification from SN that the issue was solved, but when I tried, I got the same result. Waiting an answer from them.
