Hi there,

 

We are planning to use aninstallation with 2 Geode cluster connected via WAN 
and using gateway senders/receiversto keep them updated. Main reason is 
resiliency for disasters in a data center.

 

It is not clear for us how torecover a datacenter in case of disaster. This is 
the use case:

- One of the data centers have aproblem (natural catastrophe)

- The other data center keepsrunning traffic and filling the gateway sender 
queues that need to be stoppedat some point to avoid filling up the disk 
resources.

 

At some point in time, the datacenter is ready to start recovery that will 
require to synchronize the Geodecopy. The procedure should something like:

- Drain gateway service queues incopy providing service

- Start gateway senders

- Make a copy

- Transfer copy to data center thatwill be recovered

- Import the copy

- Allow the data center to catchupup via replication

- Start again the copy.

 

Does it make sense? Or is there abetter way to do it. In case the answer is 
yes, is there any way to draingateway sender’s queues (both for parallel and 
serial GWs)

 

Thanks in advance,

 

/Evaristo
