a Multi-Domain Server as a secondary station, respond 'no' to the
prompt "Are you installing the Primary Multi-Domain
Server [yes/no]?" during the initial configuration process. Once
you complete the initial configuration, you cannot change this
definition.
4. Run the mdsstart command to start the Multi-Domain Server.
5. Install the VSX management add-on for Security Management/Multi-Domain Security Management as
described in the High End Security Product Suite Getting Started Administration Guide.

SmartDomain Managers appear.
