Replacing a CCR cluster node

 

Applies to: Forefront Security for Exchange Server

In the event that a CCR cluster node becomes damaged or unusable, it must be replaced.

To replace a CCR cluster node

  1. Add the new server to the cluster as the passive node.

  2. Install Exchange on the passive node.

  3. Install FSE on the passive node.

Note

Wait until one replication cycle has completed (seeding) before permitting the node to become the active node. When the seeding is complete, the following message is written to the event log: “Successfully updated from the active CCR node (seeding successful).”
