Clustering the device

Please note – it is strongly advised to use separate hypervisors for each Secfense Broker instance that will be part of the cluster.

To bind two Secfense Broker instances into a cluster, ensure that:

  • Both devices were installed separately (cloning an existing instance is not acceptable).
  • Both IP addresses can communicate with each other.
  • Both devices are running the same software version.

To cluster the devices, issue this command:

bin/cluster_wizard

Be careful when asked whether the current device is the main one – if you incorrectly designate a clean device as the main one, you risk deleting all the configuration made up to this point.
