Join Supercluster Dialog
In the Supercluster page’s action list, the Join Supercluster command lets you add a Polycom 
RealPresence DMA system to an existing supercluster or create a new one. It opens the Join Supercluster 
dialog, where you can specify any cluster in the supercluster to join. If the cluster you specify isn’t already 
part of an existing supercluster, joining to it creates a new supercluster that gets its shared data store from 
the cluster you specify. 
The following table describes the fields in the Join Supercluster dialog. 
See also: 
SIP TLS Port 
The TLS port number the cluster uses for SIP. 
Status 
Indicates whether the cluster is superclustered and whether it’s in service. 
Time 
The time and date that the status was checked. 
Note: Supercluster software versions must match
All the clusters in a supercluster must be running compatible software versions. Patch releases of the 
same major version will generally be compatible, but major version upgrades will not be compatible. If 
the software version of the system you’re adding isn’t compatible with the supercluster or cluster to 
which you’re joining it, a message tells you so and the join operation is terminated. 
The host names (virtual and physical) of every cluster in the supercluster must be resolvable by all the 
other clusters. For a superclustered system, A/AAAA records on your DNS server(s) for each physical 
host name, physical IP address, and virtual host name are mandatory. See 
.
Column

DMA system should be joined, or the system with which to form a new

management interface for the cluster to be joined.
