Setting up Secondary DC

[cbaptiste]

Hey guys,

in this page Modify the Primary Data Center for Replication it says to add the load balancer fqdn for the second datacenter. Any idea with load balancer dns are they referring to? The LTM or the GTM? My best guess is it's the LTM but can't be sure so I am asking. It can't be the GTM since it's the same for both side. Then again I don't know.

c. Add the load balancer FQDN of the secondary data center cluster to the /usr/local/horizon/conf/runtime-config.properties file.

Edit the /usr/local/horizon/conf/runtime-config.properties file.

vi /usr/local/horizon/conf/runtime-config.properties

Add this line to the file:

analytics.replication.peers=LB_FQDN_of_second_cluster

For anyone who may need to use this as a reference. Use the VIP for the LTM of the second datacenter. Do remember to remove that line from the file when modifying the second datacenter. The document doesn't mention that.
