Thought so, just trying to look at all the potential options right now. We'll probably end up going the single region route, but the idea of a whole zone rebooting because of misbehaving HA worries me. We're going from a traditional single node, non-HA setup. We're used to having a single node go

Regions are designed to be completely separate from one other, so no, as far as I'm aware there is no way to sync secondary storage data between them. I don't think you'd want to do that anyway, as it defeats the purpose of maintaining an isolated cloud region from another. - Si _

As Ahmad pointed out, it does look to be an issue with VLAN trunking. How are the XS connected to each other and what is the VLAN assigned to the particular guest network (I am assuming you are using Advanced Zone with VLAN Isolation)? -Original Message- From: Matthew Midgett [mailto:cl

A followup here: You can't have secondary storage that spans regions (e.g, templates/snapshots in sync), even with S3/Swift correct? If not that's another downside to regions on top of the account sync. It seems like the best solution to prevent weird split-brain/HA issues would be to have at le

Hi Yuri, Whilst testing this, I killed off the Host Masters approx. 10 times, and on about 2 occasions the old Pool Master did automatically re-join as a slave, but on the other 8 occasions they did not. I think it depended on how long they were down for, so a simple reset of the host was OK,

I appreciate the explanation. That seems to confirm what I was thinking, that until regions are working 100% we'll just have to make sure the DC-to-DC links are as stable/redundant as possible to prevent HA issues. If we increase the HA delay it shouldn't be a major issue, and it will still be bet

Hi Logan, The biggest issue to deal with in a multi-datacenter deployment is the database, specifically latency between database nodes and between the CloudStack management servers and the database. Hosts in remote zones quite happily talk back to remote management servers over WAN links. Cur
