HA MDS setup were some domains are initially created on the primary and some on the secondary

[Herold]

Hi,

My customer has an HA MDS setup were some domains were initially created on the primary and some on the secondary. I have two questions regarding such environment:

1- Is there a way to normalize the situation so that all domains, even the ones that were created initially on the secondary, consider the primary MDS as the main one?

2- What would be the best way to upgrade the two MDS servers from R80.10 to R80.20

Regards,

For the domains that were created on a different server, you can change the Active Domain Management Server.
See the Changing the Active Domain Management Server section of: https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R80.20_GA/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R80.20_Multi-DomainSecurityManag...

For upgrading, I would review the upgrade guide, which has a section on upgrading Multi-Domain: https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R80.20_GA/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R80.20_Installation_and_Upgrade_...
That said, you may wish to do a migrate export/import and fresh install to leverage the newer xfs filesystem on your MDS.
