The primary purpose of the management server is to monitor and manage the cluster environment. The majority of the management server functions are beyond the normal management services associated with the Sun Cluster 3.0 environment. You can supply these services to other systems as the computing resources in the management server allow. The management server has enough CPU power and memory resources to consolidate logging messages from all cluster nodes and to implement the following servers:

• Sun Management Center

• SunPlex

• Network Time Protocol (NTP)

• AnswerBook
