📋 Quick Start Guide

For HA Implementation:

1. Review Prerequisites:

   # Check dependencies
   bash scripts/verify/check-dependencies.sh
   

2. Set Up Environment:

   # Copy .env.example to .env and fill in values
   cp .env.example .env
   # Edit .env with actual values
   

3. Create Secondary Container (Manual):

   • Follow Phase 1 in docs/04-configuration/NPMPLUS_HA_SETUP_GUIDE.md
   • Use provided commands to create VMID 10234

4. Deploy Keepalived:

   # Deploy scripts and configs
   bash scripts/npmplus/deploy-keepalived.sh
   
   # Update auth_pass in /etc/keepalived/keepalived.conf on both hosts
   # Then start Keepalived
   

5. Sync Configuration:

   # Export from primary
   bash scripts/npmplus/export-primary-config.sh
   
   # Import to secondary (use backup directory from export)
   bash scripts/npmplus/import-secondary-config.sh /tmp/npmplus-config-backup-*
   

6. Set Up Monitoring:

   # Add cron jobs
   crontab -e
   # Add: */5 * * * * /path/to/scripts/npmplus/sync-certificates.sh
   # Add: */5 * * * * /path/to/scripts/npmplus/monitor-ha-status.sh

📝 Next Steps

1. Review all scripts for your environment
2. Update .env file with actual values
3. Schedule maintenance window for HA implementation
4. Execute Phase 1-6 following the HA guide
5. Test failover scenarios thoroughly
6. Enable monitoring and alerts

⚠️ Important Notes

• .env.example is blocked by .gitignore (intentional for security)
• All scripts use .env file for configuration
• Production changes require manual execution
• Test in non-production first if possible
• Backup primary NPMplus before making changes
• Keepalived auth_pass must match on both hosts
