9.2 Disaster Recovery of CIS Infrastructure Nodes

All HA nodes must run for the CIS to work properly. If any of the nodes is corrupted, you can replace it with a new recovery server. At least one healthy node must be available to recover the corrupted nodes.

To replace an infrastructure node:

  1. On the new node that you are adding to replace the corrupted node, perform Step 1 to Step 5 of Section 9.1, Scaling Up of HA Nodes.

  2. On the CIS server, run the following command:

    ./infra-reconfigure -replace -new <FQDN of new infra node> -old <FQDN of old infra node>

  3. Verify the replacement of node in the following files:

    Configuration file: /etc/opt/novell/cis/configurationStatus.json

    Config file: /etc/opt/novell/cis/config

    The FQDN of the new node is listed instead of the FQDN of the old node in these files.
