Hi,
Have some questions about AIP Clusters.
- When the documentation says "add another node to the AIP cluster" is that simply yet another AIP Scanner server, deployed and configured using the same Cluster name and SQL server?
- What happens when the Scan Job is started? Do both Nodes then start working together to share the load? how do they ensure that neither node scans the same files? Or do you have to configure different scan job PER different node?
- Where would we find more detailed config information and explanations for this AIP Cluster/Node concepts?
Thank you,
SK

2022-09-20T21:48:26.663+00:00 Here are some of the articles that discuss AIP Nodes:
- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/information-protection/deploy-aip-scanner
- https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/security-compliance-and-identity/best-practices-for-deploying-and-using-the-aip-ul-scanner/ba-p/1878168
Not sure why you need the articles though - my question is a generic question about AIP Nodes, its configuration and trying to understand how they actually work and operate.
Thanks,
