It's twice as hard then simply replicating a file system. Try in a large organization getting DBAs and the sysadmins synced up. It's just easier replicating the filesystem. Less moving parts equals better.

I know Archiva is run on a JCR (JackRabbit) repository. I've setup a Jackrabbit cluster on a clustered oracle database. (So twice clustering, one for the repo, one for the db). I think it shouldn't be too hard to implement this with Archiva also.

Not Archiva but Nexus where the disk uses Raid 5 which is then a network mount. The data and artifacts are shared between two instances of Nexus and they sit behind a VIP. If the primary goes down then the VIP flips over to the second instance that's running. With Nexus it's simple disk replication so you could do lower tech solutions using rsync, or not so low tech as there are tools that do disk replication at near wire speeds. But the VIP approach has worked for us.

Hi all,

Does anyone have experience in setting up Archiva in a highly available manner? What is the best considered approach for doing this? Is it possible to replicate deployments to a server across all other servers in a cluster? Are there any options for automatic failover?

Any advice or pointers on this would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Matt T
