Managing node clusters
Note:
SuperUsers and Administrators can force a database synchronization;
StandardUsers and RestrictedUsers cannot. See
“User groups reference”
on
page 319 for more about permissions.
Changing node numbers
Node numbers cannot be edited directly. If you need to change the node number
after adding the node to the topology tree, you must first delete the object, then
create a new object, and last, assign a new node number to it.
To change a node number
1
On the
Devices
tab, right-click the existing node.
2
Click
Delete
, and
OK
.
3
Click

Save Changes
.
4
Add a new object.
See
“Adding nodes and objects”
on page 83.
5
Assign a new node number.
See
“Node number”
on page 77.
Note:
SuperUsers can change node numbers; Administrators, StandardUsers,
and RestrictedUsers cannot. See
“User groups reference”
on page 319 for more
about permissions.
Note:
The node with the lowest node number serves as the active node in a
failover group. All nodes with higher node numbers remain on standby status.
Changing node passphrases
Synchronization passphrases cannot be edited directly. If you fail to provide a
passphrase, or provide an erroneous one, when you add a node to the topology
tree, you must first delete the object, then create a new one, and last, assign a
new synchronization passphrase to it.
To change a node passphrase
