I was watching the "setting up Rendundancy" video. Now, how is he able to have 2 gateway tabs?
So I did install the designer and I was able to add another gateway with a different IP but when I change the Local Host gateway to master even the other gateway changes as well into master. What did i do wrong?
Also for some reason, in the designer I was able to change the name from "ïgnition-Laptop-4kk9530A" to "Local" why doesn't it show it on the open gateway?
"Ignition redundancy supports a 2-node system, meaning there are two copies of the Gateway running. One node is the Master Gateway and the other is the Backup Gateway or backup node. All projects, Gateway settings, etc., are shared between nodes. The master node manages the configuration then replicates it to the backup node. "
I am aware that I need to set up one gateway as a master and one as a backup as shown in the video but when I set the Local gateway to master, even the other gateway goes to master without me setting it up(it does it automatically).
If I switch the other gateway to back up even the Local goes automatically to backup.
Any change in the redundancy status for some reason is replicated automatically in both of the gateways so I cannot set up a master and backup. Is there a solution to that ?
I assume you mean from the designer Launcher? If so, creating a connection to a gateway is not the same as "creating" a gateway. As @Kevin.Herron said, a gateway is "created" by installing ignition
