Manage settings, a sub-menu of Centralized Management Options. From this

Manage settings. Continuing our SMTPROUTES example, using the delete
option will also result in a blank SMTPROUTES table for the cluster. This is fine
if you previously configured definitions for SMTPROUTES at the group level or
machine levels. It is not a best practice to delete the cluster level settings and rely
only on group or machine settings. The cluster-wide settings are useful as
defaults on newly added machines, and keeping them reduces the number or group
or site settings you have to maintain by one.

Q. I have a standalone appliance that has been fully configured and receiving mail

with listeners, users, etc If I apply the Centralized Management feature key and
create a new cluster, what happens to my settings?
A. If an appliance was previously configured in “standalone” mode, its
standalone settings will be used when creating the cluster. That is, when you
create a new cluster, using the
standalone settings will be used when creating the cluster. That is, when you
create a new cluster, using the
clusterconfig -> create cluster
command, all configurations are initially set at the cluster level. The next
machine to join the cluster will receive all of these settings.
