3 TopicsConfiguration Synchronization across BIG IPs
Hello Everyone, I'd like to share a situation and would love to receive some suggestions. I do have a big ip env where I want to replicate the configuration of a Active-Standby cluster into another big ip instance (check attachement). Cluster contains BIG-IP-A (Active) and BIG-IP-B (Standby) and BIG-IP-C (Standalone). The goal is to have a duplicated configuration of all LTM and ASM instances (VS, nodes, pools, policies, learning settings, certificates ...etc) between BIG-IP-A (or B since they form a synchronized cluster) and BIG-IP-C. This replication should be done rergularly and manually. My initial thought is to create a new device group of Sync-Only type between the BIG-IP-A and BIG-IP-C and specify the sync type option as Manual. I wasn't sure that this would be enough for this operation to get all the needed configuration replicated into the destinated BIG-IP-C. What do you think ? if this method is correct to start with, what are your thoughts on how to improve and get the best out of it ? if not, I'm open to any new suggestions. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and for your ideas,8Views0likes0CommentsASM Sync Between 2 Data Centers
Hi Folks, Any one tried to sync ASM configuration between 2 data centers successfully? my current scenario is, i have HA pair (active/passive) in data center A and another HA pair (active/passive) in data center B and need to sync the the ASM configuration between the 2 data centers.Solved227Views0likes16CommentsCan we remove sync-only device group? Is there impact of procedure?
Hi Currently we are using F5 LTM+DNS+APM. And we have 4 unit in DNS sync group.. (2 in DC and 2 in DR) We have sync-failover separatly in each DC but we have same sync-only group for APM sync policy Our issue is, They saw device group of other DC show incorrectly. For example. If you are access to GUI on F5 DC. in Device management menu , You will see Sync-failover device group of 2 DC unit (which is correct) but you will also see Sync-failover device group of 2 DR unit too and it show in Disconnect state. <<<< This is problem. but i think it's expect behavior because F5 DC should disconnect from F5 DR I suspect this is happen because we have sync-only group (which include all 4 device both DC and DR) Question is Can we just remove that Sync-only device group? Is there any interruption of service or impact of procedure? Or I can't remove it and need to re-create all new HA from scratch both DC and DR? Sync status as below Thank you704Views0likes1Comment
