Exceed onDemand A Technical Whitepaper

Exceed onDemand 5 — A Technical Whitepaper
When adding a new node to an existing cluster, the activation key originally associated with the
newly added node will not be transferred to the Cluster Manager. Therefore, it is necessary for
administrators to re-enter the activation key using this tool. Similarly, if a node is to be reverted back
to the standalone status, it will require an Activation Key which can be obtained from Hummingbird,
or the administrator can remove a key from the Cluster and use it on the new standalone Server. It is
important to remember that each Activation Key can only used on one server in order to comply with
the End User License Agreement.

Node Management
Nodes are in fact the individual X Proxy Managers. Therefore, in a standalone Exceed onDemand Server
configuration, the host itself will be listed in the Nodes sub-tree. Node Management tasks includes:
> Configure Proxy Manager Port
> Set Display ID
> Set the Secure Shell command
> Select the role of the node
> Restart the node
> View Proxy Manager log
