# Step K: Re-designate the backup worker node
<a name="upg-red-redesignate"></a>

Re-designate the backup worker as a backup so that it only runs active channels that have failed over from an active worker node.

**To designate a backup worker node**

1. On the web interface for the primary Conductor Live node, access **Cluster** > **Redundancy**.

1. Select the worker node redundancy group.

1. On the **Active Nodes** tab, locate the backup node that the channels failed over to and choose the **Move** button (circle).

   The node is moved back to the **Backup Nodes** tab.

1. When the backup node is moved back to the backup tab, choose a different active worker node and perform the steps [Step F: Fail over an active node](upg-red-fail.md) through this step for the same node. Repeat this entire process for each active worker node in the cluster until all have been processed.
