Scalability migration guide

Last updated on:

Overview

This section explains how to migrate from the existing High Availability (HA) setup to the new scalable architecture.

In the HA setup, two servers are configured:

  • Primary server
  • Secondary/Standby server

During migration, only the primary server will be retained, and the secondary server will be decommissioned.

Steps to switch to scalable architecture

Follow the steps below to switch to the scalable architecture.

Stop the service

  • Shut down the application service on both the primary and secondary servers.

Update wrapper.conf on the primary server

  • Navigate to the configuration file: <Log360_Home>\server\conf\wrapper.conf
  • On the primary server, remove the following
    • lines:wrapper.java.additional.x+1=-DremoteIp=<Standby Server IP>
    • wrapper.java.additional.x+2=-DlocalIp=<Primary Server IP>
    • wrapper.java.additional.x+3=-DvirtualIp=<Virtual IP>
    NOTE The standby server configuration does not require any changes, as it will no longer be used in the scalability setup.
  • Update Elasticsearch configuration
    • Navigate to the configuration file: <Log360_Home>\ES\config\elasticsearch.yml
    • If the following property exists, remove it. If not present, no action is required: node.max_local_storage_nodes: 2
  • Decommission the secondary server
    • The secondary (standby) server from the HA setup should now be decommissioned.
    • Only the primary server will continue for migration into the scalability architecture.
  • Configure scalable architecture
