Resolution: EMSA 2.4.0 has a new feature where a Prod-A appliance in a DR Quad can monitor the low disk space in the Backup-A and Backup-B appliances. This is achieved by monitoring the backup appliances using port 9990. This port needs to be opened in the firewall between the Production site and DR site.
The requirements for DR as follows.
- All appliances in a DR configuration should be of the same model, either standard or high-performance. All appliances should also use the same TIBCO Enterprise Message Service Appliance software version.
- DR operations require that the following ports be allowed between members of the DR cluster. These DR communications all use the EMS-IP address.
— SSH port 22
— RSYNC port 873
— Agent port 9990
This requirement of the new port to be opened in the firewall will be documented from EMSA 2.5.0 onwards.
