Cluster Configuration
Before You Create or Update a Cluster
Make sure the server instances that you want to add to the cluster are running.
Verify that the permissions on the server machines allow connections to the other servers in the cluster.
Make sure the /naming/defaultContext channel exists only on one or none of the nodes that will form the cluster. The
Universal Messaging server instance used as a JNDI provider uses the /naming/defaultContext channel to store JMS references and JNDI objects. If the channel exists on multiple nodes, you cannot create the cluster.
If you have a custom composite template for
Command Central 9.9 or earlier, you must remove the
Universal Messaging server
instance.name suffix from the
COMMON-CLUSTER configuration type in the template when you apply the composite template in
Command Central 9.10 or later.
In the following example, you have a composite template created in Command Central 9.9 and earlier, and then the same template in Command Central 9.10 and later.
In Command Central 9.9 and earlier:
