175 Chapter 26 Cluster Management
Clustering
Candidate
The following fields relate to the switches that are potential cluster members.
List A list of suitable candidates found by auto-discovery is shown here. The
switches must be directly connected. Directly connected switches that are set to
be cluster managers will not be visible in the Clustering Candidate list.
Switches that are not in the same management VLAN group will not be visible in
the Clustering Candidate list.
Password Each cluster member’s password is its web configurator password. Select a
member in the Clustering Candidate list and then enter its web configurator
password. If that switch administrator changes the web configurator password
afterwards, then it cannot be managed from the Cluster Manager. Its Status is
displayed as Error in the Cluster Management Status screen and a warning
icon ( ) appears in the member summary list below.
If multiple devices have the same password then hold [SHIFT] and click those
switches to select them. Then enter their common web configurator password.
Add Click Add to save this part of the screen to the switch.
The switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save
link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory
when you are done configuring.
Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this part of the screen afresh.
Refresh Click Refresh to perform auto-discovery again to list potential cluster members.
The next summary table shows the information for the clustering members configured.
Index This is the index number of a cluster member switch.
MacAddr This is the cluster member switch’s hardware MAC address.
Name This is the cluster member switch’s System Name.
Model This is the cluster member switch’s model name.
Remove Select this checkbox and then click the Remove button to remove a cluster
member switch from the cluster.
Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this part of the screen afresh.
