This section shows how to configure flexVDI Manager in High Availability. After this, if the flexVDI Host that is running the flexVDI Manager fails, another instance of the flexVDI Manager will be started on another host automatically. The requirements to clusterize are:

  • Having registred at least two flexVDI Hosts in the flexVDI Manager. This task can be done through the  the flexvdi-config command.
  • Having shared storage accessible by the flexVDI Hosts: SAS, ISCI, ...
  • Having performed the instructions in chapter Clustering and shared storage in this Manual.
  • Having the same virtual bridge (for instance virbr0) connected to the same LAN in all flexVDI Hosts.
  • It is highly recommended to have a dedicated network interface for storage.
