Raritan Engineering Command Center CC-SG - Manual (Page 205)

C HAPTER 12: ADVANCED ADMINISTRATION 189
Set Secondary CC-SG Node
1. Click Discover CommandCenters to scan and display all CC-SG appliances on the same
subset as your one you are currently using. Alternatively, you can add a CC-SG, perhaps
from a different subnet, by specifying an IP address in CommandCenter address in the
bottom of the window. Click Add CommandCenter.
Note: Adding a backup CC-SG from a different subnet or network may avoid issues affecting a
single network or physical location.
2. To add a Secondary Node, or backup CC-SG node, select a CC-SG unit with Standalone
status from the Cluster Configuration table. The version number must match the primary
node’s version.
3. Type a valid user name and password for the backup node.

4. Click Join “Backup” Node.
5. A confirmation message will appear. Click Yes to assign Secondary status to the selected
node, or click No to cancel.
6. After you click Yes, CC-SG will restart the newly selected Secondary node. This process can
take several minutes. When restart is complete, a confirmation message appears on your
screen.
7. On the Setup menu, click Cluster Configuration to view the updated Cluster Configuration
table.
Note: If the Primary and Secondary Nodes lose communication with one another, the Secondary
Node will assume the role of the Primary Node. When connectivity resumes, you may have two
Primary Nodes. You should then remove a Primary Node and reset it as a Secondary Node.
