What is the relationship between the Clusters folder and the Management Central system group?
When you use iSeries Navigator to create a cluster, a system group is also created on the Management Central server. The system group is given the same name as the cluster name and the endpoint systems in the system group are the nodes in the cluster. The system group also has its own special type so that iSeries Navigator knows it is a special system group that represents a cluster. Important: The Management Central system contains the system groups. If you choose to change your current Management Central system in iSeries Navigator, the new management central system will not have the special cluster system groups, and therefore those clusters will not show up in the Clusters folder.
When you use Simple Cluster Management to create a cluster, a system group is also created on the Management Central server. The system group is given the same name as the cluster name and the endpoint systems in the system group are the nodes in the cluster.
