If your system has been configured for georedundancy (Manage Geo-Redundant mode is enabled), there can be situations when you need to change the preference of the servers in a cluster to be active or spare. See Georedundant Site Preferences for more information.
To reverse a georedundant cluster preference:
- From the Platform Setting section of the navigation pane, select Topology Settings.
The Cluster Configuration page opens; the initial group is All Clusters.
- From the content tree, select All Clusters.
The Cluster Configuration page opens.
- Click View for the cluster you want to modify.
The Topology Configuration page opens, displaying information about the cluster.
- Click Modify Cluster Settings.
- In the Cluster Settings section of the page:
- To set the preference to reverse (where the active Site 1 becomes the inactive site and Site 2 becomes the active site), toggle to Reverse.
- To set the preference to normal (where the active Site 2 becomes the inactive site and Site 1 becomes the active site), toggle to Normal.
- Click Save.
The cluster preferences are reversed.
