Hi,

Can anyone please tell me how to setup a Kloxo cluster, so that email, web, DB, DNS & logs are on separate VPS' / servers? I don't see anything on this in the documentation.

And, when setting up a client, will it automatically setup the DNS records on all servers, and provision email, DB and web files on the different servers in the cluster?

Does the script installer work well with a cluster setup?

With 40 views I would expect someone knows how to setup the master & slave VPS's, but I guess not?

To set it up, install Kloxo Master on your master. Then install Kloxo Slave on the slaves.

You can go to your Master (localhost). Then you go to Servers and add the other servers (slaves).

When you create a client, you will specify the server for:
web
mail
mysql
dns (can be multiple)

Then those will be the servers for your client's domains.

Thanx, but I'm not using severs, I'm using VPS's, so I have installed the hostinabox templates.

Server/VPS -- same term

I use server because it is a) shorthand for VPS and b) because you never know for sure if someone is using a VPS or dedicated server and it is better to say server than VPS and get electronically yelled at for saying VPS when the person has a dedicated server

Actually, there's a BIG difference, especially in this case. The hostinabox templates are universal, so one needs to make changes to the VPS after it's installed.

Does anyone know what (correct) steps to take to make an existing Kloxo VPS a slave? And how does one add it to a master?

Just do this if you use HiB ostemplate. You can still install centos-full rather than hib.

Over ssh:
/script/make-slave

and you will have a slave server, as has been listed on the forums numerous times.

That is the only step. You will need to configure the server after setting it up to ensure the mail server name, among other things is set on the slave.

Thanx,

But what I'm looking for is the "among other things"

Honestly, if you can find a full list of everything that needs to be done, on the forum, then please show it to me. I couldn't find it, and the docs doesn't have it either.

/scripts/make-slave isn't the only step, there should be other steps as well.

Well I am not staff, so I can't help you as much as they can.

I have done this successfully for clients of mine though, so I know there are only a few steps:

Step 1:
/script/make-slave

Step 2: login to your Kloxo install (master) as admin and go to Servers
Step 3: click "Add Server"
Step 4: Enter the information requested (admin password and IP address/FQDN)
Step 5: Set the server roles by going to Server Home(slave)->Server Roles

I just determined those right now, though I may be missing a step. I can try to help you with the addition of more VPSes using HiB and set it up for you, though that would cost money. If you are interested, PM me.
If I did miss a step, please post here with what is wrong and I will try to help.

It's a slave now... so login at your master node and add the slave using the steps described above. You don't have a control panel interface when you install kloxo as a slave.
