Synchronizing the EAServer Cluster

Synchronize the nodes of an server cluster using Sybase Management Console.

Prerequisites 

Before you synchronize a cluster, ensure you have correctly prepared the export configuration file that is used to synchronize the cluster: sync-MyClusterName.

Synchronization provides an easy way to distribute modules and configuration information between servers. You can connect to the primary server in a cluster and distribute repository information to synchronize one or more of the other servers in the cluster.

  1. Synchronize the cluster:
    1. Open Sybase Management Console.
    2. Right-click the cluster you created, and choose Synchronize.
  2. Upon synchronization completion, copy installation-directory\EAServer\html\download\sync-ClusterName.zip from the primary to subordinate node.
  3. Stop the subordinate node by running: installation-directory\EAServer\bin\stop-server.bat -local
  4. Apply the updates by running: installation-directory\EAServer\bin\private\apply-update.bat installation-directory\EAServer\html\download\sync-ClusterName.zip
  5. Restart EAServer.
