Setting up a Geographic Redundancy enabled system

Last Updated : Jun 26, 2020 |

Before you begin

Ensure that the installed primary and the secondary System Manager servers:

  • Contain the same hardware.

  • Satisfy the following requirements:

    • Must have the same hardware configuration.

    • Must contain the same version of the System Manager software that includes the template, the software packs, and the patches.

    • Must be able to communicate with each other over the network.

    • Must have synchronized network time.

The high-level steps for setting up the Geographic Redundancy-enabled system are as follows:

Procedure

  1. Install the primary System Manager Release 8.1.x software or upgrade the System Manager server to the release 8.1.x.
  2. Install the System Manager 8.1.x software version on the secondary System Manager.
  3. Configure the two System Managers for the Geographic Redundancy operation. For more information about configuring Geographic Redundancy, see Administering Avaya Aura® System Manager.
  4. Enable the replication of the primary System Manager data to the secondary System Manager. For more information about enabling the Geographic Redundancy replication, see Administering Avaya Aura® System Manager.
  5. Conduct the system verification tests to verify the Geographic Redundancy-enabled system. For more information, see Performing system verification tests.
