Re: Innodb Cluster with DR setup

[Frederic Descamps]

Hi Haashir,

This means that an existing InnoDB Cluster is required to be the source replica in a cluster set. But an existing InnoDB Cluster cannot be a replica inside of a ClusterSet.

So if you plan to create the ClusterSet later, you start from the existing IDC and when you are ready, you first create the ClusterSet from that IDC and after you create the replica (DR side) by adding first an instance in that replica (DR) IDC. As it's DR it can run with that single instance only... but if you want, you can then add 2 other instances to also have 3 instances in the InnoDB Cluster used as Replica/DR.
