You can add expansion servers to your system at any time to increase the overall
computing power of your system.
What you should know
An expansion server is any server machine in a Security Center
system that does not host the Directory role. The purpose of the expansion server is to
add to the processing power of the system.
Every Security
Center
system requires its own pool of servers to run the system’s functions. You must ensure that
enough computing power is available for your system to carry out its required
functions.
To add an expansion server:
-
Install Security
Center Server on the computer that you
want to add to the server pool.
For more information about installing Security
Center Server, see the Security
Center Installation and Upgrade Guide.
-
Connect that computer to the Security
Center’s main server.
The main server is the one that hosts the Directory role. This is done with the Server
Admin through a web browser.
-
Open Config
Tool on any workstation.
-
From the home page, open the Network view task.
The server you just added should appear in the network tree. The name of the server
entity should match the domain name of the server.
-
Select the new server entity, and click the Properties
tab.
If the server is used as the proxy server for a private network protected by a
firewall, set its Public address and Port
as configured by your IT department.
-
Click Apply.
You can now assign roles to the server.
