(Back to #mongodb overview) (Back to channel listing) (Animate logs)
[00:32:20] <cgi> if i want to setup a mongodb highly available system with two machines in the cloud - is there a way to do this?
[09:31:17] <cgi> is there any hope of running a Mongodb system with 2 machines instead of 3 for HA?
[10:27:02] <GothAlice> cgi: https://stackoverflow.com/a/25515526/211827 — TL;DR: don't do this.
[10:27:57] <GothAlice> This comment explains one of the largest problems: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25502410/two-nodes-mongodb-replica-set-without-arbiter#comment62055180_25502723
[10:29:50] <GothAlice> cgi: Specifically, with only two nodes, one dies, the singular remaining node will never win an election. There is no public left to vote. Two nodes down to one and you don't have a writeable database any more.
[12:18:04] <cgi> GothAlice, there is no way to make a failover? one database to read/write. If it dies, switch to the other one?
