Some embodiments provide a method that, at a first machine that operates at a first physical site as a primary global manager for a logical network spanning a plurality of physical sites, receives a set of ordered data describing a configuration of the logical network. The method stores, in a particular order, the received set of ordered data in a first database located at the first physical site. Through a channel between (i) the first machine and (ii) a second machine that operates at a second physical site as a secondary global manager for the logical network in case of failure of the primary global manager, the method provides the set of ordered data in the particular order for the second machine to store in a second database in the particular order. The second database located at the second physical site.
A method comprising:
A non-transitory machine-readable medium storing a program which when executed by at least one processing unit operates within a first machine as a primary global manager for a logical network spanning a plurality of physical sites, the program comprising sets of instructions for:
