A.3 Installing on an Active Cluster Node

Before you install the AppManager agent, ensure that the virtual server is active on the cluster node where you are installing the agent and managed object. Typically, discovery of the virtual server can only take place when the virtual server is active on the agent computer.

In most cases, move the active virtual server to each node before installing the managed object in order to discover all of the disk resources associated with the cluster. Or, install AppManager on an inactive node and disable the option to perform discovery as part of the installation. After installation, you can then move the virtual server to the appropriate node and run the discovery job manually.

Because MSCS resources are fully cluster-aware, you do not need to fail over any resources in order to discover MSCS resources.

For more information about installing the agent on each cluster node, see the Installation Guide for AppManager.
