Set up a Replacement Target Server

Once the original source server is replaced or repaired, it
can then be configured to replace the empty spot created by
the movement of the target server to the position of source
server. Configure this Web Filter so that the IP addresses
are that of the target server which became the source
server. Upload the running target configuration, which was
downloaded prior to converting the target server to a source
server. Use this configuration to create a duplicate of the
target server that was moved. Once this step is complete,
the cluster is whole again and should operate normally.

Set up a New Source Server from Scratch

In the event that you do not have a reliable backup file that
can be used for establishing a new source server, you must
recreate the settings on the new source server.

Set up a Target Server as a Source Server

1. Log in to the console of the target server designated as
the new source server.
2. In the System section of the console, access the Reset
window and click Reset to remove all settings on the
server.
3. Enter all settings from the failed source server on this
"new" server. In the Setup window (accessible via
System > Synchronization), specify that this is a source
server.
4. Apply all software updates that were applied on the failed
source server.
5. In the Policy section of the console, enter all groups and
filtering profiles.
6. Make all necessary settings in all sections and windows
of the console.
