Automation Suite on Linux installation guide

1. Convert the standalone Automation Suite cluster into the primary cluster. For details, see Converting a standalone cluster into a primary cluster.
2. Install secondary Automation Suite cluster. For details, see Disaster Recovery - Installing the secondary cluster.

Converting a standalone cluster into a primary cluster​

1. Update cluster_config.json. Add or update fqdn, cluster_fqdn, and enable multisite.

   assignment

   "fqdn" : "<global traffic manager fqdn>"
   "cluster_fqdn": "<fqdn of the primary cluster>",
   
   "multisite": {
       "enabled": true,
       "primary": true
    }
   "fqdn" : "<global traffic manager fqdn>"
   "cluster_fqdn": "<fqdn of the primary cluster>",
   
   "multisite": {
       "enabled": true,
       "primary": true
    }
   

   For details, see the following documentation: Advanced installation experience. Update the TLS certificate section to configure the new certificate, ensuring it meets the requirements outlined in the Active/Passive Certificate Requirements section.

   Note:

   It is recommended to keep the FQDN of your existing Automation Suite setup to avoid reconfiguring all your robots.

2. Configure the infrastructure on the first server node.

   1. Navigate to the installer folder:

      assignment

      
      cd /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/{version}/installer
      
      cd /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/{version}/installer
      

   2. Run the following command on the first server node:

      assignment

      ./bin/uipathctl rke2 update-fqdn -i /path/to/cluster_config.json --versions versions.json
      ./bin/uipathctl rke2 update-fqdn -i /path/to/cluster_config.json --versions versions.json
      

      This will update all the other nodes in the cluster, including the remaining server nodes, agent nodes, and specialized agent nodes.

3. Configure the fabric and services on the first server node, by running the following command:

   assignment

   ./bin/uipathctl manifest apply cluster_config.json --versions versions.json
   ./bin/uipathctl manifest apply cluster_config.json --versions versions.json
