Pushing cluster configuration settings
You can push cluster configuration settings to Interceptors and SteelHeads in the Clusters page: Cluster Operations.
You can also schedule the push to start at a specified date and time and restart the optimization service if required.
During cluster push, some enabled configuration settings from general policy and appliance configuration policies that are assigned to the appliance are pushed.
Note: Cluster pushes fail on the SCC 8.6.0 through 9.2 and later, when you attempt to change the IP Address on the SteelHead in a cluster. You must first delete the path selection rules, load-balancing rules, and SteelHeads from the Interceptor, then push the cluster again from the SCC. For details, go to Knowledge Base article
S28086.
To push cluster configurations
1. Choose Manage > Appliances: Clusters to display the Clusters page.
2. Click Cluster Operations to expand the page.
3. Select Push Cluster Configuration from the drop-down list. A cluster push fails if in-path interface appliance configuration for the Interceptor isn’t included in the policy push. You must configure host labels in a policy before you can perform cluster push.
4. Under Push cluster configuration, complete the configuration as described in this table.
