Promote a node

If you want to promote a node to Primary in your cluster, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Nodes tab.
2. Click on the Promote button with the arrow icon next to the node you wish to promote.

A confirmation popup will appear, asking if you really want to promote this node.

If you confirm, a health check will be processed before the promotion process begins:

• If the node is not healthy, another popup will appear, warning you that the node cannot be promoted.
• If the node is healthy, the following steps will occur:
  1. The selected node will be reconfigured as the Primary node.
  2. All other nodes will be reconfigured as Replicas, pointing to the new Primary.
  3. Once the process is complete, a backup will be automatically created with the new Primary.
