  • 1.  Api Connect 10.x high availability VMware OVA

    Posted 02/13/23 09:41 AM

    I wonder if it is possible to configure 2 OVA per subsystem in order to count with HA. in general I found that is recomended to install at least 3 OVA per subsytem

    Configuring API Connect subsystems in a cluster - IBM Documentation

    Thanks so much in advance for your support

    best regards, Claudio

    Hiya,

    I am afraid not - 3 nodes are needed for High Availability due to the need to have quorum.

    We do not support having 2 nodes - that would give no high availability but would give you 2 points of failure so it would actually be worse than just having a single node. You need to have three nodes so that you avoid split-brain when one node goes down - this is industry standard practice for quorum.
