  • 1.  Can Oneclick with Report Manager Support Fault Tolerance

    Posted 18 days ago

    Hi All

    One of our customers has been using standalone spectroSERVER to monitor their network. Now they want to deploy Spectrum using DSS mode. The customer wants to deploy OneClick and SpectroServer separately, and deploy Report Manager on the OneClick server. The spectroSERVER is deployed in fault tolerance mode. The customer wants to deploy OneClick with Report Manager in fault tolerance mode as well. I would like to know if OneClick with Report Manager also supports fault tolerance mode? Is there any documentation on how to deploy OneClick with Report Manager in fault tolerance mode? Very many thanks.

    There is no supported way of doing FT SRM. What I did, for one of my customers, was to setup a second SRM that I did not connect to process events from the DSS. We setup a MySQL Replication that excluded from the tables those temporary tables that should not be replicated over to the FT site. It works. At the time we did it using BOXI that had a built-in replication mechanism for reports over from one BOXI to another. 

    Nowadays, with Jasper, I think that you need to export/import report definition from one system to another.

    We used to run reports on the FT SRM, just to validate that all data is being synched between the active SRM and the one on the FT site.

    In case of primary SRM failure, one would have to enable the SRM event processing on the FT SRM and then take care of the replication from the FT SRM to the Primary SRM, once this comes back online.

    Very many thanks for the answer.

    I have a question, if we only deploy oneclick web server (without SRM), can this deployment support fault tolerance mode?

    You don't really need FT OneClick. You just need to replicate some configuration files from one OC server to another. Both provide the same functionality. 

    OC is an interface to the SS, that is actually doing all the work.
