Set up Multi-site Replication

This wizard enables you to set up multi-site replication within your Ceph environment.If you have already added another cluster to your multi-cluster setup, you can select that cluster in the wizard to automate the replication process.If no additional cluster is currently added, the wizard will guide you through creating the necessary realm, zonegroup, and zone, and provide a realm token.This token can be used later to manually import into a desired cluster to establish replication between the clusters.

Realm configuration mode

Create new realm/zonegroup/zone

Select existing realm

Select Realm

Realm Name

Enter a unique name for the Realm. The Realm is a logical grouping of all your Zonegroups.

This field is required. This realm name is already in use. Choose a unique name.

Zonegroup Name

Enter a name for the Zonegroup. Zonegroup will help you identify and manage the group of zones.

This field is required. This zonegroup name is already in use. Choose a unique name.

Zonegroup Endpoints

Select the endpoints for the Zonegroup. Endpoints are the URLs or IP addresses from which the rgw gateways in that zonegroup can be accessed. You can select multiple endpoints in case you have multiple rgw gateways in a zonegroup

Zone Name

Enter a unique name for the Zone. A Zone represents a distinct data center or geographical location within a Zonegroup.

This field is required. This zone name is already in use. Choose a unique name.

Archive

Enable archival storage to keep all object versions and protect data from deletion or corruption.

Zone Endpoints

Select the endpoints for the Zone. Endpoints are the URLs or IP addresses from which the rgw gateways in that zone can be accessed. You can select multiple endpoints in case you have multiple rgw gateways in a zone

Username

Specify the username for the system user.

This user will be created automatically as part of the process, and it will have the necessary permissions to manage and synchronize resources across zones.

This field is required. This username is already in use. Choose a unique name.

Replication Cluster

Choose the cluster where you want to apply this multisite configuration. The selected cluster will integrate the defined Realm, Zonegroup, and Zones, enabling data synchronization and management across the multisite setup.

Before submitting this form, please verify that the selected cluster has an active RGW (Rados Gateway) service running.

Replication Zone Name

Replication zone represents the zone to be created in the replication cluster where your data will be replicated.

This field is required.

Archive

Enable archival storage to keep all object versions and protect data from deletion or corruption.

Multi-site replication setup is complete.

@for (realminfo of realms; track realminfo; let i = $index) {

Realm Name

Token

@if (i < realms.length - 1) {

} }

During the automation process, the RGW module will be enabled on both the source and target clusters, if it is not already enabled. This action may cause a temporary downtime (5-10 seconds) on each cluster.
