BIG IQ and Enterprise manager are different product.

 

For BIG IQ you can use management address as HA, just make sure the latency between 2 DC should be less than 3 sec which is hard coded in BIG IQ.

    Hi Amit,

     

    Thanks for the reply.

     

    Could you please clarify on the 3 Sec part because in all the BIG IQ Admin guides I'm only able to find that the HA can be formed using Self IPs only.

     

    Don't get me wrong as I'm new to this BIG IQ. :)

     

    Regards, Allwin
