Additional Management Servers

For your second and subsequent Management Servers, you will install the Management Server software, connect it to the database, and set up the OS for the Management Server.

Perform the steps in “Prepare the Operating System” and “Building RPMs from Source” or “Building DEB packages” as appropriate.
This step is required only for installations where XenServer is installed on the hypervisor hosts.

Download vhd-util from vhd-util

Copy vhd-util to /usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts/vm/hypervisor/xenserver.

Ensure that necessary services are started and set to start on boot.

service rpcbind start
service nfs start
chkconfig nfs on
chkconfig rpcbind on

Configure the database client. Note the absence of the –deploy-as argument in this case. (For more details about the arguments to this command, see Install the Database on a Separate Node.)
```
cloudstack-setup-databases cloud:dbpassword@dbhost -e encryption_type -m management_server_key -k database_key -i management_server_ip
```
Configure the OS and start the Management Server:
```
cloudstack-setup-management
```
The Management Server on this node should now be running. If the servlet container is Tomcat7 the argument –tomcat7 must be used.

Warning

On RHEL and CentOS systems, firewalld (installed by default) will override all iptables rules set by the cloudstack-setup-management script, so ensure that the firewalld is disabled or ensure the correct firewalld rules are in place to allow traffic to ports 8080, 8250 and 9090 to the management server.
Repeat these steps on each additional Management Server.
Be sure to configure a load balancer for the Management Servers. See Management Server Load Balancing
