Agent and Scalability Servers Move Operations

An agent is configured to connect to only one domain manager at any given time. However, the agent can be reconfigured. The move of an agent can be triggered by the following command:

caf setserveraddress new_scalability_server

The move of a scalability server can be triggered by the following command:

cserver config -h new_domain_manager
cserver register

Whenever a calendar is updated on a CA Common Services (CCS) server (located on a DSM manager), the CCS agents (located on DSM scalability servers) need to be updated. Therefore, run the scalability server procedure “Synchronize CCS Calendar” on every downstream scalability server that has a CCS agent installed.

If you move a scalability server from one manager to another, using the command cserver config -h new_manager, the CCS agent (located on that scalability server) is automatically reconfigured to connect to the new manager.

Note: To ensure that CCS values are not changed when re-registering the server, use the cserver command with the "-i" option instead of "-h".

If, however, the server is moved using policy, then this must be done manually; otherwise, the agent will continue to connect to the old CCS server. To change to the CCS server on the new_manager, use the following commands on the scalability server computer:

cautenv setlocal CA_CALENDAR_NODE new_manager_address
cautenv setlocal CA_OPR_PROXY new_manager_address
unicntrl stop all
unicntrl start all
