Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C160 Mode D'Emploi

When you create the cluster, the machine you happen to be logged into is 
automatically added to the cluster as the first machine, and also added to the 
Main_Group. Its machine level settings effectively get moved to the cluster level 
as much as possible. There are no settings at the group level, and the only settings 
left at the machine level are those which do not make sense at the cluster level, 
and cannot be clustered. Examples are IP addresses, featurekeys, etc.

Leave as many settings at the cluster level as possible. If only one machine in the 
cluster needs a different setting, copy that cluster setting to the machine level for 
that machine.  Do not move that setting. If you move a setting which has no 
factory default (e.g. HAT table, SMTPROUTES table, LDAP server profile, etc.), 
the systems inheriting the cluster settings will have blank tables and will probably 
not process email.

To have that machine re-inherit the cluster setting, manage the CM settings and 
delete the machine setting. You will only know if a machine is overriding the 
cluster setting when you see this display: 

Settings are defined: 

To inherit settings from a higher level: Delete Settings for this 

feature at this mode. 

You can also Manage Settings. 

Settings for this feature are also defined at: 

Cluster: xxx
