VCD question with Rabbitmq

[ManivelR]

Hi All,

We are currently testing vcloud director 9.5 with HA/load balancing

Our setup:-

VCD1 & VCD 2 for HA/load balancing

VCDDB1 & VCDDB2 for HA/load balancing.

My doubt:- Should i use Rabbitmq(on a seperate VM) ? it is must ?  or  When using multiple VCD cells for load balancing/HA, the cells can communicate directly to each other via AMQP without Rabbitmq VM ?

Please advise.

Thank you,

Manivel Rajarathinam.

Hi,

You will need an NFS server as well, so I'd propose that you combine the NFS and RabbitMQ to one server to save some management overhead.

In terms of PostgreSQL, please see these page for more info on how to set that up:

I've been told by those more familiar with postgresql that it's hard to get a similar solution to mssql clusters, but it can be managed.
