Sophos UTM HA in AWS

We are looking to setup HA for our existing UTM that is running in the AWS US-west2 region. What are our options for that? I havent found any documentation pointing to that? Any leads in this matter are highly appreciated.

  • Hi and welcome to the User BB!

    Go to the Sophos KnowledgeBase and search on UTM AWS standby.

    Cheers - Bob

  • I reviewed the documentation and dont see a place how the config will be synced between two sophos utm's. as in our case where we have an  allready running utm . how will the ENI's -- in our case we have 4 attached to the main utm-- be handled . also the utm doesnt have anything specific to the aws in the HA section..
  • I haven't tried this, but my understanding is that the process described in the KB article lets you set up a cold standby that fires up when your current instance dies and that it uses the same storage.  That was what I was considering, so I didn't consider the UTM's built-in "Hot-Standby" functionality.  Please let us know your results and give us some idea of how to duplicate your success.

    Cheers - Bob
