Reference
You can cluster TelePresence Server MSE 8710s with MCU MSE 8510s, provided that you have replaced
n
the MCU software on the 8510 blades with the identical build of the TelePresence Server that is running on
the 8710 blades. Visit the
replacing the MCU software on the MCU MSE 8510.
You can have more than one cluster in a chassis and the chassis can host different types of clusters.
n
Blades that do not support clustering can be installed into an MSE 8000 chassis alongside a cluster.
n
You must assign the cluster roles (master/slave) to the slots in the chassis (via Supervisor); if a blade fails,
n
you can replace it and the cluster configuration will persist; however, the active calls and conferences are
affected as follows:
If you restart or remove the master, the slaves will also restart: all calls and conferences end.
l
If a slave blade fails, the clustering configuration on the Supervisor and the blade may disagree. In this
l
case, the Supervisor pushes the clustering configuration to the blade. The clustering configuration only
includes clustering information; it does not configure network settings or anything else on the blade. If
the Supervisor has pushed a configuration change to a blade, the Supervisor will prompt you to restart
the blade.
If the Supervisor restarts or is removed, the cluster continues to function, conferences continue, and the
l
cluster does not restart when the Supervisor reappears.
Always keep a recent backup of the Supervisor.
n
You cannot upload / delete the enhanced font file on a slave blade; it is only required by the master.
