Setup up proxies in HA

  • Hedvig recommends setup of proxy in high availability as this could be single point of failure.
  • In order to create proxy pair , Deploy cvm.ova two times in ESXI.
  • On barebone machine make sure both resides on different physical nodes.
  • Make sure one interface interface is connected to private network (eth1) and another to public network to provide access of nfs/iSCSI.
  • set hostname and update /etc/host file of both VMs,
  • During cluster install , change tgt nodes file as follows.
