Edit Membership | Accesses a list of DataPower appliances that are members of the managed set. You can use this list to add appliances, remove appliances, or mark an appliance as the master appliance. |
Synchronization | Forces a synchronization of the appliances in the managed set. The appliance manager attempts to maintain the synchronization automatically, but this option allows you to request that a synchronization be performed. |
Launch![]() |
Launches the DataPower WebGUI in the default domain on the master appliance in the managed set using the credentials that are defined in the DataPower appliance manager. Whenever you modify shareable appliance settings or a managed domain on the master appliance, the changes are distributed to every appliance in the managed set. Verify that pop-ups are enabled on your browser before you launch the DataPower WebGUI. |
In the Firmware section, click
to change the firmware for the managed set. The firmware must have the same appliance type, model type and licensed features as the appliances in the managed set.In the Settings section, click
to view the versions of shareable appliance settings that are available for this managed setIn the Appliance section, click
to display a table of all of the appliances that are assigned to the managed set.Specifies a user-defined symbolic name for a managed set. This field is read-only
Specifies the firmware version that is to be synchronized to all of the appliances in the managed set.
If you have a single appliance managed set, and if there is not a firmware version in the DataPower appliance manager that matches the firmware that is used by the master appliance for that managed set, this field might be blank. In this situation, you can either add a firmware to the DataPower appliance manager that has the same version number, appliance type, model type and compatible licensed features as the single appliance in the managed set, or you can click
in the Firmware section, and select a firmware version for the managed set. This new firmware automatically becomes the firmware for the single appliance in this managed set, and must have the same appliance type, model type and licensed features as that appliance.Specifies the aggregated operational status of all the managed domains on all of the appliances in the managed set.
The status is unknown if the managed set does not have any managed domains. If the managed set has managed domains, the status reflects the aggregated operational status of all of the managed domains on all of the appliances in this managed set.
This field is read-only. The following values might appear in this field:
Specifies whether the designated firmware version, sharable appliance settings, and managed domain versions for the managed set are synchronized across all of the appliances in the managed set. This synchronization status combines the firmware synchronization status, the settings synchronization status, and the synchronization status of all the managed domains on all the appliances of the managed set.
This field is read-only. The following values might appear in this field:
Specifies a list of managed domains. You can use this list to change a managed domain to an unmanaged domain.
The managed domains of a master appliance are copied to all appliances in the managed set. Expand this section to view a list of the managed domains. You can then select one or more managed domain, and click
if you want to turn the selected domains into unmanaged domains. When a managed domain becomes an unmanaged domain, it displays in the Unmanaged domains table instead of in the Managed domains table.f you need to modify a managed domain on the master appliance, select that managed domain, and then click
to launch the DataPower WebGUI on the selected managed domain on the master appliance in the managed set. A new domain version is automatically created whenever you save changes in the managed domain on the master appliance. This new version becomes the current version and the changes are synchronized across the managed set.Specifies a list of unmanaged domains. You can use this list to manage these unmanaged domain.
The managed domains of a master appliance are copied to all appliances in the managed set. By default, domains are not managed. Unmanaged domains are not copied to subordinate appliances in the managed set.
Expand this section to view a list of the unmanaged domains. You can then select one or more unmanaged domain and click
to turn the selected domains into managed domains. When a unmanaged domain becomes a managed domain, it displays in the Managed domains table instead of in the Unmanaged domains table.If you need to modify the configuration of the master DataPower appliance that is contains in an unmanaged domain, select that domain, and then click
to launch the DataPower WebGUI on the default domain of the master appliance in the managed set. You can then navigate to the unmanaged domain in the DataPower WebGUI. Clicking this button is equivalent to clicking the button at the top of this administrative console page.
