HA setup system health checks

The Installation Checks page on the admin portal gives information about the health of each node.

  • When you run a system check, the Installation Checks page shows one record with health information for each node of the HA system.
  • Cron continues adding node information to the checks.
  • This data helps you determine node information such as code level and MQ status.

Since Cron is providing the data for the system check, it can take a few minutes for Cron to run and collect the data.

To see the System Check:

  1. Open a browser and log in to the admin portal. 
  2. From the left navigation pane, under SYSTEM, click Checks. 

 

System Availability Tests:

Application Servers:
To test app server HA, turn off one of the app servers by logging into the app server (for example, Web Node1) and stopping the Apache service. The service should be accessible because the loadbalancer will reroute traffic to Web Node2 or Web Node3.

Database Servers:
To test database replica set redundancy, stop MongoDB service on one of the MongoDB nodes and service should be accessible with the two other database servers running.
