Install CA SOI on Node B

After the Move Group operation, Node B becomes the active cluster node. Install CA SOI on this node to configure a high availability between nodes. Select the same components and use the same options that you selected for Node A. Select the Use Existing Database option, because the installation on Node A already created the database.

For multi-cluster deployments, install the same components on Node B that you installed on Node A. For example, if you installed only the SA Manager on Node A, install only the SA Manager on Node B. This convention applies to all clusters.

Follow these steps:

1. Start the CA SOI installation on Node B and follow the same conventions as the installation on Node A, but clear the Start Services option in the installer to prevent the services from starting.

   Several values must be consistent across nodes. For more information, see Install CA SOI on the Active Node.

   When the Database page opens, it detects the created SA Store database on Node A.

2. Select Use Existing Database to use the same database as Node A and click Next.
3. Click Finish on the Summary screen.

   The installation begins and the Install Complete screen appears when finished.

   Follow the same conventions when you install the UI Server or connectors in separate clusters in a multi-cluster deployment as a part of the high availability setup in each cluster.

4. Start and stop the CA SAM Application Server service on Node B after installation.

   Required configuration files are created.
