How to enable Multi-AZ deployment on COD

Understand the entitlements that you need to access the Multi-AZ on COD and also how you can disable Multi-AZ on your COD environment.

To use this feature on an AWS or Azure environment, you must first contact Cloudera Support or your Cloudera account team to enable the following entitlements in CDP Public Cloud.

  • On an AWS environment, you need the CDP_CB_AWS_NATIVE entitlement.
  • On an Azure environment, you need both CDP_CB_AZURE_MULTIAZ and CDP_AZURE_DATABASE_FLEXIBLE_SERVER entitlements.

Once the entitlement is enabled, COD supports multiple availability while creating databases, by default.

To disable multiple availability on COD, you can provide the --disable-multi-az option while creating a new COD database using cdpcli-beta.

For example, cdp opdb create-database --environment myEnvironment --database myDatabase --disable-multi-az

If you provide this option for a CDP environment on GCP, the call fails because this feature is only applicable to AWS and Azure (as a technical preview).
