Hi @faizalabu,

to implement HA on HFs, you have to instal at least two HFs in your infrastructure and a Load Balancer that distributes traffic between the HFs and manages failover.

Then you should manage the HFs using a Deployment Server that guarantees that configurations are always aligned between them.

There isn't a cluster of HFs like Indexers or Search Heads.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
