delete the default connection factories on cluster

[Jakaria_Ritonga1 (Jakaria Ritonga)]

Hi,

i tried to configure UM Cluster with 2 hosts.
Its said in documentation that default connection factories must be deleted after creating cluster.

Important: After creating a Universal Messaging cluster, delete the default connection factories that were created when you first installed Universal Messaging, and re-create these default connection factories to include the IP and port details of all the clustered nodes (for example, sagbase:9000,sagbase:9001). The default connection factories of Universal Messaging are not updated when you add nodes to the Universal Messaging cluster. If the default connection factories are not updated with details of the cluster nodes, Integration Server fails to connect to the Universal Messaging cluster when the cluster node that is defined in the default connection factories fails.

How do i remove default connection factory?

i have configured cluster without doing it.
i can send and receive document from Integration Server when all host is active.
But its failed when one of its host is not active.

Regards,
Jaka

Jakaria,
You need to read more about UM clustering basics. It works in a concept called ‘quorum’. Have 3 UM realms connected in a cluster. Bringing one UM node down, the cluster will be active as it has got 2 out of 3. If you bring second UM realm down, it becomes 1 out of 3, and so this 1 UM will go down.

Read UM clustering guide.

Also, on the connection factories to be deleted, you can install and use Enterprise manager which is an admin UI for UM monitoring. You can delete, and create any assets through enterprise manager.

Hi Jakira,

UM cluster is working of quorum(more than 50% of servers in the cluster) must be active and intercommunicating to each other. Quorum is the term used to describe the state of a fully formed cluster with an elected master and other is slaves.

In this approach you can configure a cluster with 3 servers and recommended for high availability , load balancing and scalability.

In Other approach you can configure a cluster with 2 servers . The quorum rule availability of more than 50% of servers in the cluster is achieved by defining the server in two sites(primary and backup) and by allocating additional flag “isPrime” is one of these sites.

The value of the IsPrime flag in a site indicates whether the primary site or the backup site as a whole can cast an additional flag. The failover is automatic if the site where the IsPrime flag is set to false fails. If the site where the IsPrime flag is set to true fails, you need to manually set the IsPrime flag to true on the active site and perform manual failover.

Above aproche known as Active/Active Clustering.

As Senthil advised youcan use Enterprise manager which is an admin UI for UM monitoring and delete, create any assets through enterprise manager.

Thanks
