https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/How-to-configure-a-DR-site-master-node/m-p/352774#M13085 <P>Hi, we have a master node in site-1 with 3 primary indexers in site-1 and 3 indexers in site 2. What configuration changes are to be made if we need to configure a new master node in site-2 as the DR? Are both master's are to be running all the time or only one?</P> Thu, 27 Apr 2017 20:53:43 GMT kiran331 2017-04-27T20:53:43Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/How-to-configure-a-DR-site-master-node/m-p/352774#M13085 <P>Hi, we have a master node in site-1 with 3 primary indexers in site-1 and 3 indexers in site 2.

Following documentation page provides details on steps and configuration changes that you would do in case of DR (migrating cluster to a new server).</P> <P><A href="https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.3/Indexer/Handlemasternodefailure">https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.3/Indexer/Handlemasternodefailure</A></P> Thu, 27 Apr 2017 21:06:20 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/How-to-configure-a-DR-site-master-node/m-p/352775#M13086 somesoni2 2017-04-27T21:06:20Z
