# Highly Available Vault Enterprise Disaster Recovery Clusters with Integrated Storage (Raft)
~> **Important Note:** This chart is not compatible with Helm 2. Please use Helm 3 with this chart.
The following is an example of creating a disaster recovery cluster using Vault Helm.
For more information on Disaster Recovery, [see the official documentation](/docs/enterprise/replication/).
-> For license configuration refer to [Running Vault Enterprise](/docs/platform/k8s/helm/enterprise).
## Primary Cluster
First, create the primary cluster:
```shell
helm install vault-primary hashicorp/vault \
--set='server.image.repository=hashicorp/vault-enterprise' \
--set='server.image.tag=1.8.0_ent' \
--set='server.ha.enabled=true' \
--set='server.ha.raft.enabled=true'
```
Next, initialize and unseal `vault-primary-0` pod:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-0 -- vault operator init
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-0 -- vault operator unseal
```
Finally, join the remaining pods to the Raft cluster and unseal them. The pods
will need to communicate directly so we'll configure the pods to use the internal
service provided by the Helm chart:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-1 -- vault operator raft join http://vault-primary-0.vault-primary-internal:8200
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-1 -- vault operator unseal
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-2 -- vault operator raft join http://vault-primary-0.vault-primary-internal:8200
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-2 -- vault operator unseal
```
To verify if the Raft cluster has successfully been initialized, run the following.
First, login using the `root` token on the `vault-primary-0` pod:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-0 -- vault login
```
Next, list all the raft peers:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-0 -- vault operator raft list-peers
Node Address State Voter

4b5d7383-ff31-44df-e008-6a606828823b vault-primary-2.vault-primary-internal:8201 follower true
```
## Secondary Cluster
With the primary cluster created, next create a secondary cluster and enable
disaster recovery replication.
```shell
helm install vault-secondary hashicorp/vault \
--set='server.image.repository=hashicorp/vault-enterprise' \
--set='server.image.tag=1.8.0_ent' \
--set='server.ha.enabled=true' \
--set='server.ha.raft.enabled=true'
```
Next, initialize and unseal `vault-secondary-0` pod:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-0 -- vault operator init
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-0 -- vault operator unseal
```
Finally, join the remaining pods to the Raft cluster and unseal them. The pods
will need to communicate directly so we'll configure the pods to use the internal
service provided by the Helm chart:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-1 -- vault operator raft join http://vault-secondary-0.vault-secondary-internal:8200
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-1 -- vault operator unseal
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-2 -- vault operator raft join http://vault-secondary-0.vault-secondary-internal:8200
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-2 -- vault operator unseal
```
To verify if the Raft cluster has successfully been initialized, run the following.
First, login using the `root` token on the `vault-secondary-0` pod:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-0 -- vault login
```
Next, list all the raft peers:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-0 -- vault operator raft list-peers
Node Address State Voter
---- ------- ----- -----
a1799962-8711-7f28-23f0-cea05c8a527d vault-secondary-0.vault-secondary-internal:8201 leader true
e6876c97-aaaa-a92e-b99a-0aafab105745 vault-secondary-1.vault-secondary-internal:8201 follower true
4b5d7383-ff31-44df-e008-6a606828823b vault-secondary-2.vault-secondary-internal:8201 follower true
```
## Enable Disaster Recovery Replication On Primary
With the initial clusters setup, we can now configure them for disaster recovery replication.
First, on the primary cluster, enable replication:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-0 -- vault write -f sys/replication/dr/primary/enable primary_cluster_addr=https://vault-primary-active:8201
```
Next, create a token the secondary cluster will use to configure replication:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-primary-0 -- vault write sys/replication/dr/primary/secondary-token id=secondary
```
The token in the output will be used when configuring the secondary cluster.
## Enable Disaster Recovery Replication On Secondary
Using the token created in the last step, enable disaster recovery replication on the secondary:
```shell
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-0 -- vault write sys/replication/dr/secondary/enable token=<TOKEN FROM PRIMARY>
```
Last, delete the remainder secondary pods and unseal them using the primary unseal token
after Kubernetes reschedules them:
```shell
kubectl delete pod vault-secondary-1
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-1 -- vault operator unseal <PRIMARY UNSEAL TOKEN>
kubectl delete pod vault-secondary-2
kubectl exec -ti vault-secondary-2 -- vault operator unseal <PRIMARY UNSEAL TOKEN>
```
