Step 3: Configure DNS

  1. Configure your by adding the records

Depending on your DNS provider the configuration process will look differently, but all DNS systems should allow you to create A records following the instructions below.

DNS Record Name
Type
IP Address

vip-party.your-domain.com

A

IP of your ALB server

vip-party.your-domain.com

A

IP of your Failover ALB server

In our example setup the records look like the following

DNS Record Name
Type
IP Address

vip-party.demo.clusterware.io

A

3.99.12.212 (ALB)

vip.party.demo.clusterware.io

A

15.223.39.144 (Failover ALB)

  1. Validate the configuration by running a dig <domain> command (on Mac or Linux) or nslookup <domain> (on Windows)

DNS records may require up to 24h to propagate your changes. Typically DNS records are updated within an hour.
