When you deploy AOC in an Arcfra Cloud Operating System (ACOS) cluster with AOC Installer, you are required to enter the cluster management virtual IP and AOC IP in the configuration page. It is recommended to plan for both IP addresses before deployment.
By configuring the management virtual IP for the cluster, you can ensure high availability for the cluster. When you access this IP address, the connection will be automatically routed to the cluster through any available host management IP in the cluster.
If you have configured the cluster management virtual IP before deploying AOC, you are not prompted to enter it in AOC Installer. In this case, you will only need to plan the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway for the AOC virtual machine.
The AOC IP and the cluster management virtual IP should meet the following requirements:
Ensure connectivity between the AOC IP and the cluster management virtual IP.
The cluster management virtual IP and the management IP of the node in the cluster should be in the same subnet.
The cluster management virtual IP cannot overlap with any IP addresses within the following CIDR blocks:
