Configure a cluster

IMPORTANT
There is usually no need to change cluster configuration parameters. You can leave all parameters at the default values.

After creation a new cluster, you can configure it by performing the following steps:

  1. Select a cluster on the Clusters page. To do this, click a cluster name in the Name column.

    Select a cluster
    Select a cluster
  2. Open the Configuration tab on the cluster page. The Configuration tab includes the following sections: Primary configuration, Configuration groups, Ansible settings.

  3. Fill in all necessary parameters on the selected tab and click Save.

Primary configuration

The Configuration → Primary configuration tab allows you to configure the general cluster settings.

Cluster configuration parameters are listed below:

Displayed if the Show advanced switch is activated.
