This section discusses MDHA-specific setup.
About this task
For general information about installing and configuring
IBM® UrbanCode Deploy,
see
Installing servers and agents.
Procedure
To set up multi-datacenter clustering, do the following
steps in order:
- Install the database. The shared database should
be installed on a separate system and before the servers are installed.
See Installing the database. Complete database installation by configuring
the appropriate JDBC driver (typically supplied by the database vendor).
- Create an empty database for IBM UrbanCode Deploy. The database should have at least one dedicated user account.
- Install the first IBM UrbanCode Deploy server, See Installing the server.
For HDMA, link the following server directories
to a shared network drive:
server_install_directory/logs
server_install_directory/var/config
server_install_directory/var/email
server_install_directory/var/plugins
server_install_directory/var/repository
In the
IBM UrbanCode Deploy web
interface, configure the server as a network relay by defining:
Name
Host
Port
Make sure that you check the
Active check
box.
- For each additional server that participates in the HDMA
topology:
- Link it to the listed directories on the shared drive.
- Configure each one to use the same database configuration
as the first server.
- Configure each one as a network relay, as described
above.
- Install load balancers. The load balancers should
be in front of the web interface.
