  • 1.  Sync API gateway changes between 2 independed clusters 

    Posted Jul 05, 2017 06:39 AM

    We plan to build-up a second cluster of the API gateway.
    The prevent inconsistency between the 2 clusters, we need a way to keep the content (policies, configurations, cluster wide properties, global resources, ...) in sync.
    One cluster will be the "master" and all changes are made there.
    Is there a way to keep the clusters in sync in real-time ?
    It is also required to have the same goid's in the mysql database.

     

     

    A futher requirement is to have the sync also active if one cluster is on version 9.x and the other is on 8.3.
    I already gambled around with the GatewayMigrationUtility but had no success:
    https://communities.ca.com/thread/241777023-gatewaymigrationutilitysh-migrateout-data-access-error#comment-241977356 

     

    Currently I have 2 clusters on the same version (8.3) and I just load the db backup every evening to the inactive cluster.
    But I guess this will not work as soon we have different gateway versions running on the clusters.

     

    Any ideas ?

    Good afternoon,

     

    We are reviewing old community posts and noted that a response had not been created for this post. A support case had also been opened up for this request and the recommendation to open an Idea in our community was put forward. 

     

    I've created a new Idea to reflect this ask: Synchronize 2 Gateway clusters so please look at the Idea and provide any other information that you feel will help with the use case and vote it up.

     

    Sincerely,
