Performing Common Cluster Administration Tasks
After you’ve created your clusters and configured them with load balancing and high
availability features, they’ll likely run inconspicuously in your environment for quite
some time. However, at some point you’ll need to update software and content or
perform general maintenance tasks that are beyond the typical cluster creation and
configuration activities.
This section describes how to perform the following administration tasks:
•
Changing a server’s state
•
Restricting a server from participating in a cluster
•
Putting a cluster member in maintenance mode
•
Updating software or content on an existing cluster
•
Resetting a server’s configuration to its pre-clustered state
