Synchronizing MRS Component Configuration Parameters

Impact on the System

• After synchronizing cluster or service configurations, restart the services whose configurations have expired. These services are unavailable during the restart.

Prerequisites

• The IAM users have been synchronized in advance. You can do this by clicking Synchronize next to IAM User Sync on the Dashboard page of the cluster details.
• You have logged in to MRS Manager. For how to log in, see Accessing MRS Manager.
