ServerConductor/Blade Server Manager Description and Reference
As shown in the figure below, the console service or an agent service can be connected to multiple manager services.
Figure 14-1 Example of multiconnection configuration
You should make note of the information in the following subsections if you use this type of configuration.
If the same host is connected to different manager services, the host is displayed for each manager in the service configuration view. In any other views, this host is displayed as a single host.
Figure 14-2 Display for multiconnection configuration
If an attempt to establish connection with the manager service results in an error during host access, the manager icon in the Host Management window is placed in unconnected status (inactive state).
However, if another target manager service is available for the host, choosing Refresh triggers an attempt to establish connection with another manager service at the connection destination. If this connection establishment is successful, the manager icon returns to the normal status (active state).
If multiple identical alerts occur at the same host at the same time, the alert is sent to the console service only once (duplicate alerts are not sent).
When All hosts is selected in the Inventory CSV File Output dialog box, information about the same host is output only once.
In a single grouping window, the same host can be registered only once. Because the hosts with different parent managers are still treated as the same host, any host registered in one group cannot be registered in another group.
When a host is deleted in the service configuration view, the host is deleted only from under the manager service at the connection destination.
When a host is deleted in any other view, the host is deleted from under all service managers.
During a host search, the database managed by each manager service is queried, and then the search result is displayed.
If both manager services have created databases in the configuration shown in Figure 14-1, check the Host Result window's Manager Service column to identify the manager service from which the search result was obtained.
