Switching Main and Secondary Primary Servers

In the unforeseen event where the main-primary server goes down the second-primary will take over and become the primary server and ensure that the system still runs. Once we recover the main-primary server we can then restart all the services on the main-primary server, to do that run the following command.

Run as root user

systemctl restart nmis9d opchartsd opeventsd omkd ophad

To switch from the Secondary Primary back to the Main-Primary so the main-primary is the master again follow these steps:

  1. Connect to MongoDB on the master server (second-primary):

    mongosh --username opUserRW --password op42flow42 admin
  2. Update member priorities:

    cfg = rs.conf()
    cfg.members[0].priority = 0.6
    cfg.members[1].priority = 0.5
    rs.reconfig(cfg)
