Moving production to new HA cluster environment

[sush_1]

Hi Team,

We are implementing qlik replicate in HA cluster environment. While doing this we would require to move the current running production to newly created cluster environment.

How we can achieve this without any data loss.

Please suggest..

regards.

Hello @sush_1 ,

Thanks for reaching out to Qlik Community!

It’s not entirely clear how you plan to move Qlik Replicate to an HA cluster environment. If you intend to export/import into the HA cluster or create tasks from scratch, you’ll need to start the task using a specified LSN/SCN/timestamp. Setting the timestamp a few minutes before the last known stop time can help ensure no data loss on startup. Be aware that this may result in some duplicate records; for further details, refer to the article Switching from Direct Replication Path to Logstream Without Reloading Data.

Hope this helps.

John.

Hi john 

We need to move our production tasks to newly created cluster environment.

Can we move entire data folder to new server and start the task with the timestamp.

After configuring the endpoint at the new server.

Basically we need to move our production to new server. Do we have any best practice for that?

Hello @sush_1 ,

Thanks for the update unfortunately copying the entire data folder does not work.

For HA implementation, I'd like suggest PS engaged.

Hope this helps,
