Question
Where can I find a quick start guide to deploy an Object Server failover pair for OMNIbus 7.4?
Answer
The following document provides a quick deployment guide to get OMNIbus up and running in 10 steps. The example deployment configures two Object Servers as a failover pair with a bi-directional Object Server gateway configured to run under the Process Agent. The example configuration is completed on Linux, but the same steps can be applied to all operating systems.
Step 1: Set environment variables on each system
Step 2: Configure the omni.dat file on each system
Step 3: Create Primary Object Server
Step 4: Create Backup Object Server
Step 5: Configure bi-directional Object Server failover gateway
Step 6: Configure the Process Agents
Step 7: Start Process Agents
Step 8: Configure the Object Server to connect to the Process Agent
Step 9: Test Failover
Step 10: Test Failback
