Create a floating IP address

We can create floating IP addresses for each of our HA groups in a DR/HA RDQM configuration.

A floating IP address enables a client to use the same IP address for a DR/HA RDQM regardless of which node in an HA group it is running on. If your two HA groups have private/isolated networks for application connectivity, then the same floating IP address can be defined for both groups. You must still define that floating IP address twice, however, once on each of our HA groups.

You create and delete floating IP addresses using the same method as for an HA RDQM. See Create and deleting a floating IP address.
