Configuring peer RiOS data store synchronization
1. Choose one appliance to be the master and one to be the backup. The backup has its RiOS data store overwritten by the master RiOS data store.
2. Make sure there is a network connection between the two appliances.
3. Connect to the Management Console on the appliance you have chosen to be the master appliance.
4. Choose Optimization > Data Replication: Data Store.
5. Under General Settings, these configuration options are available:
Enable Automated Data Store Synchronization
Enables automated RiOS data store synchronization. Data store synchronization ensures that each RiOS data store in your network has warm data for maximum optimization. All operations occur in the background and don’t disrupt operations on any of the systems.
Current Appliance
Specifies Master or Backup from the drop-down list.
Peer IP Address
Specifies the IP address for the peer appliance. You must specify either the IP address for the primary or auxiliary interface (if you use the auxiliary interface in place of the primary).
Synchronization Port
Specifies the destination TCP port number used when establishing a connection to synchronize data. The default value is 7744.
Reconnection Interval
Specifies the number of seconds to wait for reconnection attempts. The default value is 30.
6. Click Apply to apply your settings, and then click Save to save your settings permanently.
7. Choose Administration > Maintenance: Services to display the Services page.
8. Select Clear the Data Store and click Restart to restart the service on the Edge.
When redeploying a synchronized pair, you must clear the RiOS data store.
