horizontal clustering in OBIEE 12.2.1.2.0

Question

hi experts ,

I have question and that is in horizontal clustering in obiee 12c  if we have 2 nodes

Node 1 with complete installation and configuration and on node 2 we have only weblogic and obiee install .

Now if incase the Node1 completely crashes then how can I bring the Admin Server up on Node 2

What is the mechanism for it

Thanks

Just want to add that scaling and high availability are two different things and as Pete mentioned,  there are a bunch of steps needed to perform to achieve HA. Simply scaling the OBIEE instances horizontally with a load balancer does not achieve HA.

hi pete ,

Thank you for your answer

But instead of virtual ip if we use load balancer and take the virtual ip out of the picture then still the admin server on node 2 can be brought up right ?

Thanks
