Bringing Down the Primary Site

This section describes how to configure to bring the primary site down and the remote site for generating notification when primary site is isolated.

Note

If you want to isolate the site without disrupting the GR replication system, do not bring down the primary site.

  1. Configure the primary site to bring the primary site down on the PCF Ops Center:

    The secondary site takes over the primary site’s traffic when the primary site is down or in the UNDISCOVERABLE state.

    config 
      system mode shutdown 
      commit 
      end 

    NOTES:

    • config —Enter the configuration mode.

    • system mode shutdown —Shut down the site.

  2. Configure the remote system ID on the PCF Ops Center:

    After primary site is unavailable, configure the remote-system-id in the secondary site using the siteID of the primary site.

    config 
      cdl 
        datastore session 
          slot notification remote-system-id [ siteID ] 
        exit 
         exit 

    NOTES:

    • config —Enter the configuration mode.

    • cdl —Enter the CDL configuration mode.

    • datastore session —Enter the datastore session configuration.

    • slot notification remote-system-id [ siteID ] —Specify the siteID for the primary site. The SiteID is associated with the cdl remote-site system-id configuration in the YANG model.

    Sample Configuration

    The following is a sample configuration for specifying the siteID.

    cdl datastore session
    slot notification remote-system-id [ 1 ]. <- 1 is the siteID of site1
    exit
