Hi,
Is the health of a DMS impacted if all the NATS server nodes (belonging to agents part of the DMS) are configured to run in the standalone mode (each node is pointing to itself in the nats-server.config)?
Which DataMiner features are not functional when NATS is configured to run in the standalone mode?
When will the clustered NATS server configuration become mandatory?
Thanks in advance,
As Rene mentioned, it is possible to run NATS as localhost, there are currently 2 things known that will no longer work:
-cloud functionalities
-user definable APIs
So as soon as you need those features you’ll have to use NATS server configuration
It is a high priority within Skyline to make NATS as robust as possible which means that in the near future it should also not be needed to configure NATS to localhost for any reason.
Hi Ciprian, we have configured NATs to localhost in various systems now and there aren’t any issues when it comes to the functionality. Redundancy is lost of course, but this is a known risk when moving away from the cluster setup.
