Hi,</div>

I've been working with Linux clustering for several years, mostly in Azure. However I've got a bit of a challenge right now. I'm trying to set up a "geo-cluster" and would like to direct client machines to one geo or the other based on DNS. I've read about
the dnsupdate resource provider here: <a href="https://documentation.suse.com/sle-ha/15-SP1/html/SLE-HA-all/cha-ha-geo-ip-relocation.html" id="LPlnk">https://documentation.suse.com/sle-ha/15-SP1/html/SLE-HA-all/cha-ha-geo-ip-relocation.html</a> which looks
somewhat promising.</div>

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
There really isn't much documentation on actually using this though. It will put the IP address in for a domain name when the resource provider runs, and will remove it when the RP stops. It's unclear how this would manage two IP addresses. Has anyone here
set this up successfully? I'm wondering if you need two of these (one with the load balancer IP address on each side) with location and colocation constraints. Is it possible to have location constraints that would make one instance of dnsupdate run when
the accessed resources are running in that location of the network?</div>

In case one site of your Geo cluster is down and a ticket failover appears, you usually need to adjust the network routing accordingly (or you need to have configured a network failover for each ticket). Depending on the kind of service that is bound to a ticket,
there is an alternative solution to …</div>
