Two node redundant deployment
📘 Instructions
In this example, two PDH servers are configured to operate as a single system. This deployment allows for future growth by adding additional nodes to either server to expand the number of peers in the cluster. In this configuration, print jobs are duplicated on each server. By replicating the servers, the overall service is more resilient to hardware failures that may occur on either server.
Please note that both PDH servers must be configured to ensure the cluster is addressable via a single DNS entry. A load balancer must also be configured to distribute network traffic between the servers. The load balancer distributing traffic to the PDH nodes would have to direct traffic away from the node being taken down for maintenance and redirect that traffic to the remaining nodes.
