We have 2 sites(site1,site2). Each site has 2 indexers each Site1(A,B) Site2(C,D) & 1 search Head each site.
Cluster Master server.conf is-
replication_factor = 2
search_factor = 1
buckets_to_summarize = primaries
summary_replication = 0
rebalance_threshold = 0.900000
multisite = true
site = site1
available_sites = site1,site2
site_replication_factor = origin:1, site1:2, site2:1, total:3
site_search_factor = origin:1, site1:1, site2:1, total:2
Replication factor and search factors were Met
After an incident, Site1 indexer A was down for an hour and we lost the data. As per the expectations, data should be coming via site1 indexer B. But it didn't
We made a small change in the server.conf but not sure, whether it shall do the job or not.
Current Cluster Master Server.conf-
replication_factor = 2
search_factor = 1
buckets_to_summarize = primaries
summary_replication = 0
rebalance_threshold = 0.900000
multisite = true
site = site1
available_sites = site1,site2
site_replication_factor = origin:2, total:3
site_search_factor = origin:1, total:2
Now, we still have to test it by brining Indexer A down. As of now, not sure if it's fixed.
Update- Earlier RF & SF used to be "MET" after
site_replication_factor = origin:2, total:3
site_search_factor = origin:1, total:2
RF is "NOT MET"
Let us know, what should be the right server.conf or any other missing configuration needed to ensure DR incase of 2 sites, 2 indexers each, 1 Search Head each site.
