Replace Node

Replacing a node in a cluster is performed when a connection fails between a node and the other nodes in the cluster. The Node Replacement procedure deletes and resets all connection information for the failed node. It may not be necessary to physically replace the hardware.

Note

this option is not available for standalone deployments.

From the primary node in the cluster (Node 1), take the following steps:

Go to Cluster Services > Node Replacement.

Node Replacement
Select the failed node and select Next.

Existing credentials are used to establish connection to the failed node. Configuration and services information is transferred from the primary node to the failed node in an effort to re-establish a connection.

If it is necessary to replace the node hardware, refer to the Universal Compute Platform Appliance 4120C Installation Guide for detailed information.
