Security

Hi Guys

 

I have been tasked with upgrading customer CPPM nodes (HW-500) 6.4 to 6.5 with 5 updates to perform first

Existing Publisher/Subscriber cluster configuration: -

1) Publisher IP x.x.x.24, Subscriber IP x.x.x.25

2) No ViP configured

3) Publisher failover not enabled

4) 802.1x Radius requests forwarded from WLC - profile contains entry for both CPPM nodes .24 and .25

 

Q - From above config, following a Publisher reload eg after update patch install, will the Subscriber automatically become Publisher?

I have read posts stating the Subscriber becomes 'Out of Sync' and is then in a position to have the same patch installed??

Q - with Publisher failover not enabled, will the Subscriber ever become Publisher dynamically? If not is the Subscriber there until manually told to become Publisher??

 

Many thanks in advance

No , you need publisher failover enabled in order to have this functionality.

Both need to have the same level code to be insync

Many thanks Victor

Gary,

 

I wanted to quickly ask about "I have been tasked with upgrading customer CPPM nodes (HW-500) 6.4 to 6.5 with 5 updates to perform first"  the 5-updates....

 

You can go straight from any 6.4.x release to 6.5.0, you don't need to apply intermediate updates.

Hi Danny - thanks for that. The release notes advise applying all patches first, can you confirm where it states otherwise?

Regards

Gary,
