You may want to add a cluster or change an existing cluster. Occasionally, a cluster might need to be disabled to perform regular system maintenance, or as part of troubleshooting issues with your Enterprise Reporter deployment.

When Do You Add a Cluster?

Typically, clusters are geographically based. A cluster is set up for each geographical location. You could also set up clusters to match your security structure and group nodes into clusters based on the credentials you want to use for collections.
