Chapter 8 Centralized Management
CCS provides an enhancement where the administrator can open up cluster communication, but not CLI
logins. By default, the service is disabled. If the centralized management feature is enabled on the
appliance, then you will be prompted to enable CCS from the
logins. By default, the service is disabled. If the centralized management feature is enabled on the
appliance, then you will be prompted to enable CCS from the
interfaceconfig
command when you are
prompted to enable other services. For example:
The default port number for CCS is 2222. You may change this to another open, unused, port number if
you prefer. After the join is complete and the joining machine has all the configuration data from the
cluster, the following question is presented:

Cluster Consistency
When centralized management is enabled, the machines that are “cluster aware” will continually verify
network connections to other machines within the cluster. This verification is done by periodic “pings”
sent to other machines in the cluster.

If all attempts to communicate with a particular machine fail, then the machine that has been trying to
communicate will log a message saying that the remote host has disconnected. The system will send an
alert to the administrator that the remote host went down.

alert to the administrator that the remote host went down.
Even if a machine is down, the verification pings will continue to be sent. When a machine rejoins the
cluster network, a synchronization command will be issued so that any previously offline machines can
download any updates. The synchronization command will also determine if there have been any
changes on one side but not the other. If so, then the previously down machine will silently download
the updates.
