I have a couple of test clusters (3 nodes in each) and I’m trying to configure them such that one runs in one country and another in another country (hypothetically).
I have read that remote consume and local produce is the pattern to follow. With that in mind I’ve spun up a MM2 instance in each location.
I configured one cluster to replicate A->B and the other B->A I.e. two one way replication configurations.
I have A-To-B as a topic in one I.e. A->B.topics = A-To-B
And B-To-A in the other I.e. B->A.topics = B-To-A
This will not work…
Running a single instance in A does replicate both as expected but one must be pushing (local consume remote produce) and one must be pulling (remote consume local produce)
I want both to Pull.
Is this not possible with the Dedicated/Stand Alone option? Would I need a connect cluster to be able to forcibly tell it what to do?
I can see mirrormaker metrics but only from one side, the other has some related connect metrics but they don’t seem to be populated. I would have thought if there were two mirror makers I’d see metrics on each side.
If it all runs on one MirrorMaker box so be it, I just need to be 100% on this.
