Recovery Setup

Recovery Setup

The
Resonate RFID Reader Management
should be installed to ensure that recovery is simple.

DNS Alias for Recovery

Zebra recommends deploying using a DNS alias, since this allows a single point of access to the
system
. If one node fails, the DNS alias can be updated to point to another node, ensuring minimal downtime. Some DNS providers allow for automatic failover, which can further enhance reliability.
In the event of a catastrophic failure of the cluster (or single node), the DNS alias can be updated to point to a new cluster or node, allowing for quick recovery. This setup ensures that the system remains accessible even in the face of significant issues.

Additional Disks

If you choose to use one of the in-cluster backup solutions, you should have another disk present on each node, so that backups can be stored on their own logical device, helping to prevent the risk of both the primary data and the backups being lost in the event of a disk failure.
