Stand alone to HA migration

**Lineman** · 2017-05-26

Hi,

I need to upgrade a single Checkpoint fw at AWS to an HA cluster. I found one article: sk69627. But this for Splat, and does have any help for the charming complications AWS adds in. Anyone know a better article that includes AWS?

Have you done a cluster in AWS before? sk104418 might be helpful. Granted this doesn't cover migrating from standalone to cluster but you might want to read it to make sure you want to do a cluster.

Your best approach would be to deployment new gateways in AWS versus trying to migrate an existing standalone gateway to a cluster.
There are cloudformation scripts available in sk104418 that do a large part of the work for you.
