We currently have 3 data centers, 2 redundant clusters (A & B) being
remotely managed by a management server at one of the data centers
(A), and a stand alone management server/gateway at the 3rd location (C).
We have purchased the extra licenses for the management server, and
clusterXL license for the 3rd data center.
What should l do 1st? 2nd? 3rd?
* Upgrade the single management server/gateway (C) to R62 (same
as the other gateways)?
* Migrate the single management server/gateway (C) to be managed
remotely by the remote management station (A)?
* Cluster the gateways (C)?
l will be changing the external connectivity in the next month, so
this seems the perfect time to perform these migrations/upgrades.
l have already commenced cleaning up the firewall policy on the stand
alone unit to make the upgrade/migration as easy as possible.
All 3 data centers will be interconeected via VPN tunnels.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
