Hello,

customer is using two 4-node clusters at different (geo)locations.

There is used a async replication of vm’s via protection domains to the remote site, that works and a failover test was successful.

customer wants to deploy NKP on its primary cluster, so far so fine.

How can NKP Kontroller cluster and working cluster replicated to the secondary site?

Protection domain too or another way?

 

kind regards,

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

 

You’ll have to use Nutanix Data Services for Kubernetes (NDK). Please check these two videos:

thanks for hint, we’ll check this. But: does not work with NKP Starter license?

NKP Starter does not include the NDK license. You can purchase it as an add-on to NCI.

If you have NCI Pro and want sync rep, you’ll have to include also the advanced replication add-on. If you are on NCI Ultimate, you just need the NDK add-on.

fine, thanks for explanation.

OT: The “old” NKE is gone with PC/AOS 7.5.x or newer?
