Chapter 39 Centralized Management Using Clusters
Administering a Cluster from the GUI
• In the CLI, use the clustermode command to switch modes.
If a you try to run one of these commands in group or machine mode, you will be given a warning
message and the opportunity to switch to the appropriate mode.
Note The passwd command is a special case because it needs to be usable by guest users. If a guest user issues
the
passwd command on a machine in a cluster, it will not print the warning message but will instead just
silently operate on the cluster level data without changing the user’s mode. All other users will get the
above written behavior (consistent with the other restricted configuration commands).
The following commands are restricted to machine mode:
If a you try to run one of the commands above in cluster or group mode, you will be given a warning
message and the opportunity to switch to an appropriate mode.
The following commands are further restricted to the login host (i.e., the specific machine you are logged
into). These commands require access to the local file system.
Administering a Cluster from the GUI
Although you cannot create or join clusters or administer cluster specific settings from the GUI (the
equivalent of the
clusterconfig command), you can browse machines in the cluster, create, delete,
copy, and move settings among the cluster, groups, and machines (that is, perform the equivalent of the
clustermode and clusterset commands) from within the GUI.
