Backup Masters - Introduction
A Backup Master mirrors the security data of the Master Security Client (MSC) in case it
has to take over as the MSC if the MSC becomes unable to operate or is removed from
the security configuration. A Backup master system receives all the updates to the security
configuration on the MSC. However, you cannot make modifications to the security
configuration on a Backup Master.
When the Configurator runs on a Backup Master, the Access Control Group tab looks like
the tab on a non-MSC system. The Access Sub-Group tab displays the ASGs, but you
cannot change the ASGs.
The Backup Master tab is available only when the HBAnyware Security Configurator is
running on the MSC or a Backup Master. Use this tab to set up a system as a Backup
Master to the MSC and to replace the MSC with a Backup Master.
Each time the HBAnyware Security Configurator is started on the MSC and no Backup
Master is assigned, a message warns you that no Backup Master Client is assigned to the
security configuration.
If you run the HBAnyware Security Configurator on a Backup Master, a message warns
you that you can only view security information on a Backup Master. Security changes
must be made to the MSC.
