Deploying multi-node sites

In a multi-node site, the site is spread out across two or more nodes that share the same set of data and license key.

The basic steps for deploying a multi-node site are as follows:

1. Plan the nodes that are needed in the deployment.
2. Install the first node in the site. This node becomes the central node, which contains all apps that are needed.

3. Install an additional node as a rim node.

See: Installing and upgrading Qlik Sense

4. In the Qlik Management Console (QMC) on the central node, add the new node to the site.

See: Configuring the node

See: Authorizing the certificate on the node

5. Wait for the first synchronization to complete and then test the new node.
6. Continue to install additional rim nodes – one at a time – as described in step 3 until the multi-node site is complete.
