    Backup Domain Server Configuration in XML

    adila01

      According to the JBoss EAP 6.3 BETA documentation when you start a host controller with the --backup flag it will act a domain backup by keeping a copy of the domain configuration. Is there a way to specify that a host controller is a backup in XML instead? Thanks.

          What you mean? A backup option for a host controller?

          Sounds not as a real use-case as the ip addresses might different.

          Or am I understand something wrong?

            My apologies for the confusion.

            According to the JBoss EAP BETA documentation  a host controller that was started with the --backup option can be promoted to act as the domain controller. Which I think it means that you start a host server like ./domain.sh --backup, then it will act like a domain controller backup.

             

            Instead of doing it as a script parameter, I would like to specify that a host controller is a back-up domain controller in either the host.xml or domain.xml. Is that possible? Thanks!

              No --backup means that the (slave) HC will store a backup of the domain configuration.

              If the DC has failed you can start this HC with --cahced-dc instead and the domain configuration backup will be used and the HC act from now on as the DC.

               

              There is no other way, especially no hot-standby as DC-failover
