In a Geographic Redundancy-enabled system, to manage the elements from the current System Manager, you can select an element and click Manage. Then, the system sends a notification to the element whose manageability status you must change. On receiving the notification, the element switches to the specific System Manager server from where you perform the Manage operation.

For information about the element manageability status, see Elements Geographic Redundancy manageability status matrix

At any time, you can perform the Get Current Status, Manage, or Unmanage operation.

During the split network, ensure that the primary or the secondary System Manager server manages an element at a time, and not both systems.
