Where to Work: Configuration Screens
The procedures in this guide use one of three screens on the Conductor web interface. All work is done from the Conductor web interface; there is never a need to switch to the web interface for a worker.
The three screens are:
The Node Configuration screen for a Conductor node.
The Node Configuration screen for a worker node.
The Conductor Configuration screen for a Conductor node.
These three screens cover slightly different configuration features, and are accessed in slightly different ways. The following tables provides more detail.
| Screen | How to Navigate to this Screen | Purpose of this Screen |
|---|---|---|
| Node Configuration screen for Conductor | From the Conductor web interface: Nodes > Edit (wrench icon) | Configures the Conductor node as one of several nodes in the cluster. Includes network settings, mount points, and firewall for AWS Elemental Conductor File. |
| Node Configuration screen for worker | From the Conductor web interface: Nodes > Edit (wrench icon) | Configures the worker node as one of several nodes in the cluster. Include network settings, mount points, and firewall for AWS Elemental Server. |
| Conductor Configuration screen | From the Conductor web interface: Configuration (cog icon) in the main menu | Configures the Conductor in its special role as the manager of the cluster. Includes failover management, authentication on the cluster, SNMP management, and so on. |
Important
Take care to go to the correct screen! Do not confuse the Node Configuration screen with the Conductor Configuration screen.
