PKI Hub cluster 2 is the passive cluster in the passive datacenter, and hosts a multi-node installation of the Cryptographic Security Platform PKI Hub that replicates PKI Hub cluster 1.
To install the passive PKI Hub cluster 2
- Provision the same number of nodes as in PKI Hub cluster 1.
- Configure node network settings such as IP addresses, hostnames, NTP servers, or DNS servers.
The nodes may have different hostnames or IP addresses than those on PKI Hub cluster 1.
- Deploy a multi-node PKI Hub installation as explained in Starting up PKI Hub.
- Run the following commands with same values as in PKI Hub cluster 1.
- If required, issue a TLS certificate using the same certificate authority that issued the TLS certificate for the PKI Hub cluster 1 and run the clusterctl certificate command to set this TLS certificate.
- Install the Stop services script for Disaster Recovery as described in Installing the stop services script.
- Perform the steps described in Restoring the active cluster configuration on the passive one to restore PKI Hub cluster 1 configuration on PKI Hub cluster 2.
You must repeat this step after any configuration change in the active datacenter.
When completing those steps, PKI Hub cluster 2 becomes the passive warm standby cluster.
