Help setting up Governance Dashboard for Cluster

[shane_spencer]

I've installed Governance Dashboard on a separate server to my Clustered Production Environment.

I want to set it up to analyze this cluster but cannot figure out the MultiCluster template.

I've tried using the Help guide but it just gives me an headache:

http://documentation.qlikview.com/governance-dashboard/1.1/QlikView_help.htm#Create_a_MultiCluster_S...

I've got 2 QVS servers, the log folders are as follows:

\\gbw05041.hbeu.adroot.hsbc\QlikViewServer

\\gbw05042.hbeu.adroot.hsbc\QlikViewServer

I've got 1 Publisher server, the logs are as follows:

\\gbw05040.hbeu.adroot.hsbc\QlikTech\DistributionService

Repository:

\\gbw05040.hbeu.adroot.hsbc\QlikTech\ManagementService\QVPR

My documents are on this NAS Share:

\\hbeu.adroot.hsbc\dfsroot\GB002\corep_mi_qlikview\QlikView_AccessPoint

I've created a new profile directory for the cluster, but do I need one for each QVS Server?

C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\Governance_1.1\profiles\RCT

Attached is the template. Can someone please help?

Tyler,

Per point 1) of your response, see the screen print below.

It would appear that I have a clustered environment.  Yet I have each QVS writing to separate locations, local to each QVS.

Is is possible that my "clustered' environment was/is setup wrong?

Should the "Log Folder" in the screen print below be set/changed to a location common to both QVS's?

As it is now, each QVS has a local Log Folder as is set in the screen print'

I still plan to use the "multi-cluster" script as described above in this discussion unless you now advise different.

Thanks...

Interesting. I would have said to write the QVS logs to the same folder on a share somewhere easily accessible by both QVS servers.

If you are getting the logs sent to two separate servers then I would use the Muli-cluster config script.

Your other option would be to update where the two QVS logs are written. (You'd probably want to move the existing logs from both servers to the new location.)  Talk it over with the Qlik admin of course!

That's what I was thinking.

Thanks again for your time.

Hi Bob, my clustered environment is the same set-up as yours:

The logs are written locally to C - I believe that's the default location.

I suppose if it had been set up to store logs from both servers in to a single share I would not have had to use the "MultiCluster_UserConfig_Template.txt" which is a lot simpler!
