configuring cluster esa on M170

[paolofasciani]

Hi

I have two esa now configured in cluster. I must configure these two esa to work and managed on one M170. I have no idea how i can do this, my question is if i must stop cluster service on the esa, before i can do configuration on M170 of these two esa...

someone can help me?

thanks

Hi Paolo,

You do not need to break the cluster to configure the M170 to manage the ESAs.  First ensure the AsyncOS versions are compatible using the compatibility matrix:

Then follow the directions in the SMA/ESA configuration guides to discover and connect the ESAs to the SMA:
