Deployment Architecture

HF and deployment server

Dear All,

We are adding one HF more HF to our system and planning to build Deployment server as well. So we have 3 HF and 1 deployment server.

HF may further increase in coming days.

Do i need to keep the replication between HF's? If yes what will be the performance impact?

And if No then if one HF goes down then how will the system work?

Regards,
Santosh

Hi santosh11,
no there isn't any replication mechanism in HFs, but you can manage your HFs with your Deployment Server, in this way you're sure that all the HFs have the same configurations.
Remember to manage all the configurations files using Deployment Server, also outputs.conf and deploymentclient.conf .

Ciao.
Giuseppe
