How to keep your InterSystems IRIS Mirror configurations in sync

Following on from JediSoft’s announcement of the general availability of JediSoft IRISsync®, I wanted to show how it can help prevent configuration drift and ensure your failover is always ready. 

When managing InterSystems IRIS production servers, even a minor configuration change can cause significant issues if it’s not replicated in your mirror environments. Often, these differences go unnoticed until your failover environment breaks.

This common, but critical, problem can lead to unexpected downtime at a vital moment and impact your business continuity.

IRISsync eliminates that risk by ensuring your primary and failover IRIS environments are fully aligned. It compares configuration settings across multiple servers, pinpointing differences right down to the parameter level. IRISsync is an active system configuration tool that saves time, eliminates tedious manual checking, and ensures your failover environments are always ready.

Key benefits of JediSoft IRISsync®:

• Instantly detect configuration drift before it causes downtime – IRISsync alerts you to any deviations between your production and failover servers, helping you catch issues early and avoid outages.
• Verify synchronization before a planned failover – before testing your failover environment, use IRISsync to confirm all settings are aligned, ensuring a smooth switchover.
• Run regularly for ongoing assurance – incorporate IRISsync into your recurring maintenance tasks to provide confidence that your failover will work at critical moments.

Confidence in every IRIS failover

Manual configuration checks are time-consuming and prone to errors, which cause issues in the event of an unplanned failover. IRISsync prevents configuration drift by providing a clear and detailed comparison of configuration settings, ensuring your failover is always up to date and ready to run.
