How is FoE implemented when splitting off to a new server using 4.x? We have one HA FoE protecting all of our modules now but I'm wondering what we do with FoE for NTA once we go from 3.12 to 4.1.
Thanks
Hi Andy,
links below should help you to set up HA NTA. FoE will keep NTA service coverd after upgrade, but depending on FSDB location you have two options, how to make the FSDB high available:
- For separated FSDB server, we recommend to setup MS Failover cluster: http://www.solarwinds.com/documentation/en/flarehelp/netflow/default.htm#orionnetflowag-settingupremotentaflowstoragecov…
- For local FSDB embedded to NTA service, you need to turn on synchronization of data stored in FSDB: http://www.solarwinds.com/documentation/en/flarehelp/netflow/default.htm#orionnetflowag-coveringlocalfsdbbyfailoverengin…
Note that the local FSDB option is only suitable for lower amounts of flows, maximum about 2000 fps.
