S3 Multi-region configuration
In order to use Remote Replication Service to replicate one S3 cluster to another S3 cluster, it is necessary to
use S3 Multi-Region Configuration. Follow the instructions here to set up RRS between two S3 clusters.
Note that it is necessary to change configuration of the DNS server used by both clusters. Before implementing
the S3 multi-region configuration, make sure you are able to enter the configuration manually into the DNS server
configuration in order to resolve the endpoint URL used for RRS.
Follow the procedure in "Import Shared Keys for RRS" on page 79 to import the shared key from each RRS
server to the other. Remember that only one node in a cluster can be the RRS server. You must login to each
cluster separately using the administrator account for the individual clusters. Make sure each cluster has already
configured a S3 Domain Name (see "S3 Domain Name Rules" on page 68).
Remain logged in as administrator for both RRS servers to complete this task.
For this RRS configuration, a Master Region must be designated for one of the clusters, while the other cluster
is designated the Secondary Region. For simplicity, in this example, the RRS server in the Master Region is
called Server A, and the RRS server in the Secondary Region is called Server B.
In the administration page for the Server A, go to the Remote DR menu, and click the Create Master Region
button at the bottom of the menu. No further configuration is required on this server.
