High Availability Guide¶

Needs Access to:¶

• AMQP

Notes¶

To run multiple designate-api services, you should run the services behind a load balancer.

When behind the load balancer, you may need to set the following:

[service:api]
api_base_uri = http://<load balancer URI>/
enable_host_header = True

Or the following:

[oslo_middleware]
enable_proxy_headers_parsing = true

And then the load balancer to set appropriate headers (e.g. enable mod_proxy in apache.)

Needs Access to:¶

• AMQP

• Database

Notes¶

You can run as many designate-central services as needed, as long as they all have access to the AMQP server(s), work will be distributed across all of them.

Needs Access to:¶

• AMQP

• Database

• DNS Servers

Notes¶

You can run as many designate-mdns services as needed, as long as they all have access to the AMQP server(s), work will be distributed across all of them.

Needs Access to:¶

• AMQP

• DNS Servers

Notes¶

You can run as many designate-worker services as needed, as long as they all have access to the AMQP server(s), work will be distributed across all of them.

Needs Access to:¶

• AMQP

• DLM

Notes¶

You can run as many designate-producer services as needed, as long as they all have access to the AMQP server(s), and a distributed lock manager, work will be sharded across all the services.

You will need to set a coordination backend_url. This needs to be a DLM that is supported by tooz, that supports group membership. See tooz driver list for available drivers

[coordination]
backend_url = kazoo://<zookeeper url>:<zookeeper port>

Needs Access to:¶

• AMQP

Notes¶

You can run as many designate-sink services as needed, as long as they all have access to the AMQP server(s), work will be distributed across all of them.
