  1. Ensure that the Listen Port setting in the Operating Environment section is not enabled.
  2. Ensure that the Gateway is started with the -port flag.

Steps as follows:

  1. Install the Primary Gateway
  2. Modify the Primary Gateway's start script to include the -port flag. For example: 
    • # Execute the binary
      cd tickets/${GW_DIR}
      ./gateway2.linux -setup ${SETUP_DIR} -resources-dir ${GW_RES} -licd-host ${LICD_HOST} -licd-port ${LICD_PORT} -log ${GW_LOG} -port 10702 &
  3. Start the Primary Gateway process
  4. Access the Primary gateway's configuration via the GSE
  5. Go to the Hot Standby section
  6. Fill up the section. For example:
  7. Go to the Operating Environment section
  8. Disable the Listen Port setting. For example:
    • The Listen Port setting is grayed-out when disabled.
  9. Save the configuration
  10. Transfer the Primary Gateway's setup file (e.g. gateway.setup.xml) to the Secondary Gateway's server
  11. Install the Secondary Gateway
  12. Modify the Secondary Gateway's start script to
    1. use the Primary Gateway's setup file
    2. include the -port flag. For example: 
      • # Execute the binary
        cd tickets/${GW_DIR}
        ./gateway2.linux -setup ${SETUP_DIR} -resources-dir ${GW_RES} -licd-host ${LICD_HOST} -licd-port ${LICD_PORT} -log ${GW_LOG} -port 10703 &
  13. Start the Secondary Gateway process

    Also don't forget to add the secondary hostname and port number to the primary connection in the Active Console Settings.
