View Cluster Details

All Softagent-based Network Discovery operations discover server clusters without you having to specify any cluster-specific discovery options. If Softagent access is successful for any of the servers that participate in a cluster, NDG successfully discovers all servers in the cluster and all cluster details. You can view these details and relationships on the Clusters tab or in the Visualization tool.

The following cluster technologies can be discovered and managed:

• Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS)—Failover and load balancing
• IBM PowerHA—High availability
• Red Hat Cluster Suite (RHCS)—A component of the high availability and load balancing add-ons for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

Note:

• Cluster relationships do not appear on the Relationships tab.
• Blueprint Discovery of server clusters do not appear on the Clusters tab.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Management link, then the Servers tab.

   The Servers tab page appears.

2. Click the Clusters link.

   The clusters discovered by CA Configuration Automation appear in the Clusters pane, and the details of the first cluster appear in the right pane.

3. Do one of the following tasks in the Clusters pane:
   • Click the name of the cluster whose details you want to view.

     The details of the selected cluster appear in the right pane.

   • Click the plus sign (+) next to the cluster whose servers you want to view.

     The cluster node expands and the servers in the cluster appear.

4. (Optional) Click a server name.

   The details of the selected server appear in the right pane.
