The following table describes the components of the Join Cluster section.
Table 88 Join Cluster section components
Description Component
The IP of the current device. If the device has multiple network interfaces, the pull-
down menu lists all available interfaces.
Local IP
The port on which the device listens for cluster administration requests.
CAUTION:
The cluster port (typically 9001) must be different from the KMS Server port
(typically 9000).
Local Port
The IP of another member in the cluster. Cluster Member IP
The port number of the other cluster member indicated above. Cluster Member Port
Click Browse to locate the downloaded cluster key file in your file system. This file
must have been previously exported from a cluster member using the Cluster Settings
section.
Cluster Key
The password for the cluster. Cluster Password
Click Join to join a cluster. After clicking this button you are asked to synchronize
with the specified cluster member. Click Confirm to synchronize now, or Cancel if you
want to synchronize manually later on. In either case, the local device becomes a
member of the cluster.
CAUTION:
Synchronizing the local device with the cluster overwrites the existing
configuration, which may include keys. You can access overwritten information
using the synchronization backup. If you have any keys that only exist on the
local device, you can use the backup and restore features to copy them to
another SKM before synchronizing the local device.
