We have 2 MPs configured for our org/environments, but why are we seeing the traffic (requests) only on one of the MPs ?

Google Cloud Apigee

  • Checked the nginx router configuration for the specific org/environment/virtual host combination

    • Looked into the Config File:
    /opt/apigee/nginx/conf.d/myorg_myenv_default.conf
    • Property Name:
    proxy_pass [http://MP1_IPaddress_port#_MP2_IPaddress_port#](http://MP1_IPaddress_port#_MP2_IPaddress_port#)

  • This confirmed that the router is configured to send the requests to both the MPs

  • Next logged onto the MP boxes and checked if the port was blocked using the below command:

iptables -L
  • Noticed that one of the MP was blocked on the port # through which router was talking to the MP, while the other was not blocked.

Removed the iptable rule to unblock the port. With this change, we started observing the traffic being routed to both the MPs.

@AMAR DEVEGOWDA , Is above question & answer related to Private Cloud ? If yes, you can move the question into right space. Thank you.

@Anil Sagar,

This was related to a problem seen in Public cloud. But the steps are applicable for Private Cloud as well starting from version 16.01 onwards.
