Tip

Check the API balancing with the following curl command:

Code Block
# curl -k -u admin:xabiquo --silent -X GET https://abiquo.example.com/api/login

{"links":[{"title":"Abiquo","rel":"enterprise","type":"application/vnd.abiquo.enterprise+json","href":"https://abiquo.example.com:443/api/admin/enterprises/1"},
{"title":"CLOUD_ADMIN","rel":"role","type":"application/vnd.abiquo.role+json","href":"https://abiquo.example.com:443/api/admin/roles/1"},
{"title":"CLOUD_ADMIN","rel":"edit","type":"application/vnd.abiquo.user+json","href":"https://abiquo.example.com:443/api/admin/enterprises/1/users/1"},
{"title":"virtual machinesvirtualmachines","rel":"virtualmachines","type":"application/vnd.abiquo.virtualmachines+json","href":"https://abiquo.example.com:443/api/admin/enterprises/1/users/1/action/virtualmachines"},
{"title":"pending tasks","rel":"pendingtasks","type":"application/vnd.abiquo.tasks+json","href":"https://abiquo.example.com:443/api/admin/enterprises/1/users/1/action/pendingtasks"},{"title":"applications","rel":"applications","type":"application/vnd.abiquo.applications+json","href":"https://abiquo.example.com:443/api/admin/enterprises/1/users/1/applications"}],
"id":1,"name":"Cloud","nick":"admin","locale":"en_US","surname":"Administrator","active":true,"email":"","description":"Main administrator","authType":"ABIQUO"}

Make sure the href links returned by the curl API call point to the correct location. Otherwise, check your configuration again.

Other setups

The configuration example Configuration sample described in this document covers the setup of a balanced Abiquo API and Abiquo UI cluster but you can change node distribution and LoadBalancer configuration to provide different setups depending on your requirements.
For example, you may want to provide separate nodes for Abiquo UI and Abiquo API or maybe you may want just to cluster Abiquo UI and provide a single and shared Abiquo API node, etc.

Also, this sample uses Apache to provide the Load Balancing functionality but this can be achieved with other HA / Load Balancing solutions such as HAProxy or other vendor hardware / software tools.
