To promote a DTX 5000-CTL Management Appliance from spoke to hub:
Once a DTX 5000-CTL Management Appliance has been registered as spoke of another DTX 5000-CTL Management
Appliance hub, you can promote spokes to work as a hub. The old hub will become a new spoke of the promoted DTX
5000-CTL Management Appliance.
In the spoke DTX 5000-CTL Management Appliance:
1. Click on System - DTX Control - Tools.
2. Click Promote to Hub Server wizard.
3. Click Next in the Welcome page.
4. Click Next in the Confirm Server Promotion page.
5. Wait until the promotion process ends. In this step the spoke is promoted to hub and sends request to all the other
servers to become spokes.
6. Click Finish to exit the wizard and go to the Server Tools page.
To delete a spoke server registration using the Spoke Server view
You can delete a spoke registration using the Spoke Server view. If the spoke is deleted, the pull and push tasks will still
run in the spoke, but the requests are not accepted by the hub.
1. In the hub DTX 5000-CTL Management Appliance, click on System - DTX Control - Properties - Spoke Servers to
show the Spoke Server view.
2. Check the box of the spoke server registration to be deleted.
3. Click the Delete button and confirm the operation. The spoke server is no longer listed in the Spoke Server view. Any
change in the spoke database will not be replicated to the hub, and any change in the hub or the other spokes will not
be replicated to that spoke.
NOTE: You can register the spoke with the hub again using the Register as Spoke Server wizard.
