Hello,

customer has 2 clusters in different datacenters and a single node “cluster” within PRISM central (also Witness instance) at 3rd location.

If he is going to upgrade the single node (firmware) he must shut down all UVM, PRISM central too.

How may he get the PRISM central vm to start automatically when cluster starts?

kind regards

Thomas

There is no option to do that other then creating a script. Keep in mind that Prism Central is also a cluster on its own (even a single vm) and means you have to run the “cluster start” command in the PCVM as well when booted.
